Rowanburn is a hamlet in Eskdale, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.

Rowanburn was founded as a coal mining community to house miners from the Canonbie Coalfield[2] in the late 19th century.

There is a memorial to the now-closed coal mines in the hamlet.

Several farms in the area were devastated by the 2001 foot and mouth crisis which spread rapidly via the local livestock market at Longtown.
