📌 Dumfries, Dumfries & Galloway
★★
This decent if old-fashioned town museum tells the story of the Dumfries and Galloway region, from Solway Firth wildlife to town and country life. The adjoining camera obscura is the world’s oldest: housed in a former windmill with viewings available on days with dry, clear weather (good luck!).
