St Joseph's College in Dumfries, South West Scotland, is a Roman Catholic secondary school.
It began as a Catholic boys' boarding school run by Marist Brothers.
[3] St Joseph's College was founded in 1875 as both a boarding school and the first Novitiate for the training of Marist Brothers in Great Britain.
After the school became public, the buildings transferred to Dumfries and Galloway Council, following the sale of part of the school playing fields at Maryfield, for the new medical centre at Gillbrae.
The grounds contain gardens and lawn at the front and back of the main building, and a playing field area roughly the size of three football fields and several hockey and tennis courts are also included.
