About: Kirkmabreck

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Kirkmabreck is a civil parish in the historic county of Kirkcudbrightshire in the Dumfries and Galloway council area, Scotland. Situated in the historic Stewartry of Kirkcudbright, and centred on the small town of Creetown on the east bank of the River Cree, it stretches north to the parishes of Minnigaff and Girthon, and west to Anwoth. Kirkmabreck also includes the small settlement of Carsluith, dominated by the eponymous castle which is in the care of Historic Scotland. It covers approximately 25,000 acres. Kirkmabreck was one of two parishes from Kirkcudbrightshire which were included in the Wigtown District which existed from 1975 to 1996, and as such forms part of the Wigtown lieutenancy area rather than the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright lieutenancy.
