Dornock

Dornock is a small Scottish village in Dumfries and Galloway, situated about 1 mile (1.6 km) west of Eastriggs and 2 miles (3 km) east of Annan.

Dornock is built on land which is 10 to 20 metres (33 to 66 ft) above sea level.

The mud and sand banks of the Solway Firth are less than one mile away to the south.

[1] Watson suggests that the [k] in the current pronunciation may imply a Cumbric rather than Gaelic origin.

[2] It is famous for the Battle of Dornock during the Wars of Scottish Independence.
