About Lincluden

Lincluden, located just north of Dumfries in Dumfries and Galloway, is home to the historic Lincluden Collegiate Church, formerly known as Lincluden Priory or Abbey. Founded around 1160, this ruined religious site is positioned at the confluence of Cluden Water and the River Nith, on the grounds of the early Lincluden Castle. The site, which includes remnants of Lincluden Tower, was abandoned around 1700 and is now designated as a scheduled monument, making it a significant point of interest for planning applications in the area.
