The permanent exhibition tells the story of the Mill and the development of the town of Gatehouse, and of the history and heritage of the Fleet Valley and surrounding area.

Temporary exhibitions also run throughout the season.

All Season

The Fleet Valley is a designated National Scenic Area. It contains a wide variety of landscape and wildlife. This exhibition follows the river as it flows from the high hills and wild moorland at the head of the valley between the narrow wooded slopes of the middle section of the valley with its patchwork of small fields and woodlands to the open estuary landscape where the river flows into the bay. A set of trail guides available from the Mill complements the exhibition.

An exhibition by The Scottish Castles Association

This exhibition traces looks at some of the many castles of Kirkcudbrightshire.  It includes castles in care, castles which have been restored, castles at risk, and a couple that are largely forgotten.  Many started off as quite similar tower houses, but their stories and outcomes differ considerably.
