NHS Facilities • Consideration of the appropriateness of Annan Hospital developing a regional growth model approach for the Borderlands area, given the analysis Police Scotland Facilities above and governance for such model. Annan Police Station • Economic appraisal of current position; evidence for the business case for the key projects; Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Facilities demonstrate that these projects are worth Annan Fire Station doing; their potential impact on GVA uplift. • Development of clear recommendations and next steps for a Borderlands proposal; taking into consideration how future actions might play into existing structures.

    The Gretna Bombing – 7Th April 1941

    Acknowledgements This booklet has been made possible by generous funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, The Armed Forces Community Covenant and Dumfries and Galloway Council, who have all kindly given The Devil’s Porridge Museum the opportunity to share the fascinating story of heroic Border people. Special thanks are given to all those local people who participated in interviews which helped to gather invaluable personal insights and key local knowledge. A special mention is deserved for the trustees and volunteers of the Devil’s Porridge Museum, who had the vision and drive to pursue the Solway Military Coast Project to a successful conclusion. Many thanks also to the staff from local libraries and archives for their assistance and giving access to fascinating sources of information. Written and Researched by Sarah Harper Edited by Richard Brodie ©Eastriggs and Gretna Heritage Group (SCIO) 2018 1 th The Gretna Bombing – 7 April 1941 The township of Gretna was built during the First World War to house many of the workers who produced cordite at the ‘greatest munitions factory on Earth’ which straddled the Scottish-English border. You might be forgiven if you had thought that Gretna and its twin township of Eastriggs would be constructed on a functional basis with little attention to detail. This was the case in the early days when a huge timber town was built on a grid system for the labourers and tradesmen, but, so intent was the Government on retaining the vital workforce, that it brought in the best town planners and architects to provide pleasant accommodation.

Many people have between them provided hundreds or thousands of records and this publication would not have been possible without them. More particularly, before my recording from 1996 onwards, plant records have been collected and collated in three distinct periods since the nineteenth century by previous botanists working in Dumfriesshire. The first of these was George F. Scott- Elliot. He was an eminent explorer and botanist who edited the first and only Flora so far published for Dumfriesshire in 1896. His work was greatly aided by other contributing botanists probably most notably Mr J.T. Johnstone and Mr W. Stevens. The second was Humphrey Milne-Redhead who was a GP in Mainsriddle in Kircudbrightshire from 1947. He was both the vice county recorder for Bryophytes and for Higher Plants for all three Dumfries and Galloway vice counties! During his time the first systematic recording was stimulated by work for the first Atlas of the British Flora (1962). He published a checklist in 1971/72. The third period of recording was between 1975 and 1993 led by Stuart Martin and particularly Mary Martin after Stuart’s death. Mary in particular continued systematic recording and recorded for the monitoring scheme in 1987/88.
