Historic Stranraer - the archaeological implications of development. (the Scottish burgh survey)

1995. vii, 80pp. The book is in excellent condition with no inscriptions. B&W images, maps and plans throughout. Folding colour map to rear. "It is exactly four hundred years since Stranraer was created a burgh of barony in 1595, but a settlement has existed at 'Stranreuer' since at least the fourteenth century. Historic Stranraer is a fascinating study of the town's history and archaeology, its historic buildings, its geography and topography, and the origins of its streets and street names. This book is part of the Scottish burgh survey-a series designed to identify which areas of Scotland's historic burghs are of archaeological interest.".
