About Newton Stewart
Search by Map
This picturesque and friendly market town was founded in the mid 17th Century by William Stewart, youngest son of the 2nd Earl of Galloway. The "New Town of Stewart" was granted Burgh status by charter from King Charles II allowing a weekly market and two annual fairs to be held. Sited on the banks of the River Cree, the town has prospered and may be regarded as the gateway to the Galloway Hills and the important historical region of the Machars. Indeed it was on a pilgrimage to the shrine of St. Ninian at Whithorn, in 1329, that Robert the Bruce forded the river where the present handsome bridge stands .
