Join Mostly Ghostly as we celebrate the beautifully restored Dumfries Fountain, with a tour exploring the impact of two major Cholera epidemics on our town. Discover fascinating real-life accounts, intriguing folklore and a sense of the dark gloom that overshadowed Dumfries, ultimately leading to healthier, happier times with the piping in of fresh water - lifeblood - and a profound connection with Dumfries Fountain.
