Maxwelltown

[1][2] Maxwelltown lies to the west of the River Nith, which forms the historic boundary between Kirkcudbrightshire and Dumfriesshire.

Maxwelltown comprises several suburbs, including Summerhill, Troqueer, Janefield, Lochside, Lincluden, Sandside, and Summerville.

[4][5] The oldest remaining building within the Dumfries urban area is on the Maxwelltown side of the Nith, Lincluden Abbey.

Some of the most notable local players for the club hail from the same side of the Nith, including Ian Dickson, Billy Houliston and Ted McMinn.

The former Benedictine Convent of the Immaculate Conception stands on a prominent position on Corbelly Hill.
