Sanquhar
Sanquhar is a community on the River Nith in Dumfries as well as Galloway, Scotland. It exists north of Thornhill and west of Moffat. It is a former Royal Burgh. Sanquhar is noteworthy for its small post office, developed in 1712 as well as held to be the earliest working post office worldwide. It was additionally the place where the Covenanters, who opposed episcopalisation of the church, signed the Sanquhar Declaration renouncing their loyalty to the King, an occasion memorialized by a monument in the main street. The church of St Brides contains a memorial to James Crichton, a 16th-century polymath. The ruins of Sanquhar Castle stand close-by. Nithsdale Wanderers, the regional group, were created in 1897. In 1924-- 25, Wanderers won the Scottish Division Three.
