Kirkandrews, Dumfries and Galloway
Kirkandrews Kirk
- ... that Kirkandrews in Dumfries and Galloway was described as "the ne plus ultra of lowness and obscurity" by a pair of visiting 19th century writers? Source: This is a direct quote from William Daniell and Richard Ayton, reproduced in "Sailing on Horseback" by Innes Macleod - full reference is in the article.
- ALT1:... that Kirkandrews in Dumfries and Galloway used to host an annual fair, dedicated to St Lawrence, that a 17th century minister complained was full of drink, debauchery and "great lewdness"? This is a light paraphrase of a direct quote, attributed and referenced in the article.

Interesting article, new and long enough, well cited and neutral. No copyvio detected. Hook is interesting, cited inline; the reference is offline. QPQ is done. Image is properly licensed. Good to go! CallMeByYourMane (talk) 11:41, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
