Join your trusty guides and delve into the town’s murky, mysterious past, as we meander through courtyard and close, kirkyard and wynd.

Despair at an ancient curse laid upon the Bruce clan, recoil at the legend of a plague-bearing stranger, and shudder at the untimely death of a local minister… Woven between the histories, feel the chill as we reveal haunting happenings from this historically important Borders town…

*The tour begins with a visit to Annan Museum’s new exhibition – ‘Legends of Old Annandale’ – with an introduction by Tom Hughes. This area has a rich tradition of stories and folklore which form an important part of the local character. Annandale really is alive with folk tales, border ballads, and curiosities. The idea of the exhibition is to explore tales of ghosts, shape-shifting witches, malevolent fairies, dragons, doomed lovers and many more strange happenings.
