This is my third attempt to send this to the D-G List. First two bounced!

Now a street completely swallowed up in the expanded Dumfries town. At one time it would have been farmland. A loaning is a sort of right-of-way for the passage of animals and vehicles through cultivated farmland. There are a number of LOANINGS in and around Dumfries. Sandy
