Flower Delivery to Dunragit with Clare Florist


Located on the A75 between Stranraer and Glenluce, Dunragit is situated within the parish of Old Luce in the traditional county of Wigtownshire. It is located in the south-west of England and the modern village grew up around the west gate of Dunragit House, which is an 18th-century country house. There is also evidence of a Neolithic settlement in the area.

HISTORY

The name Dunragit is said to be derived from Din Rheged which means “Fort of Rheged” and refers to the Brythonic kingdom of Rheged which existed in the northern part of Britain between the 5th and 8th centuries.

It's also possible that Dunragit was one of the royal sites used by the kings of Rheged. It was also suggested that it was the site of King Arthur's northern court, Pen Rhionydd, which is recorded in the medieval Welsh Triads.

Archaeological excavations in the area between 1999 and 2002 unveiled complex Neolithic monuments. Although nothing can be seen above ground, aerial photographs show an early Neolithic cursus monument, as well as remains of three later Neolithic concentric timbre circles which date to around 2,500 BC.

ATTRACTIONS

Dunragit House – a short walk from the main highway along a narrow paved road.

Glenwhan Gardens – features lots of Dunragit flowers and is located just a few feet from the Dunragit House. The gardens featuring flowers in Dunragit is very well maintained and beautifully planted. An admission fee is required to view the place and the gardens are quite large as well.

Ruins of Glen Luce Abbey – located about two miles away and built during the early Christian era in Scotland. It was once a very impressive structure but it fell into disuse and was largely destroyed by the time of the Reformation.

Castle Kennedy – located about three miles west and is in ruins.

Lochinch Castle – the replacement castle for Castle Kennedy and still exists to this day. It is currently occupied and the distance between the two castles is about a half-mile walk.
