June 10 ~ It was overcast first thing, but soon the sun returned and again it became very hot, so decided to go via Elvanfoot to
Wanlockhead and the
Lead Mines Museum. Stopped for a coffee at the museum and noticed a leaflet about an abbey near Maybole in Ayrshire. Having never been there, checked the map for distance and set off to have a look. This proved to be well worthwhile. The abbey, called
Crossraguel was a substantial ruin and was very photogenic. Returned to Moffat via
Newton Stewart and the main coast road. After a brush up and change of clothes went off to meet Doreen and Dennis at Claudios for a family get-together and evening meal.
