Haugh of Urr
Haugh of Urr (), is a village in Dumfries and Galloway, south-west Scotland. It is approximately NNW of Dalbeattie, NE of Castle Douglas, 12½ miles west of Dumfries and 12½ miles east of Kirkcudbright.
==Description==
The village is situated beside the River Urr. Scots ''haugh'', from Old English ''halh'', ''healh'' 'corner, nook' means river-meadow or a level piece of ground beside a stream. 'Urr' is from Cumbric ''or'' 'a border, boundary, limit'.
It has one pub, the Laurie Arms which incorporates a part-time Post Office, one Church (Church of Scotland), a Village Hall, a Scout hut, and a small village green. The village no longer has any shops. It used to have two shops, one of which included a petrol filling station, while the other included a full-time post office, which reduced to part time in later years. The last shop closed in 2009. Hardgate is a nearby hamlet up the hill and the boundaries are indistinct. Agriculture and tourism are the mainstays of the local economy. The village is known to locals as ''"The Haugh"''.
