Old travel Blog photograph of the Needle's Eye, a natural arch, on the coast by Kippford, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. Kippford is is a small village along the Solway coast. It stretches along the banks of the Urr estuary and in places is only one house wide. Kippford is a popular sailing village, with many small yachts moored in the tidal estuary of the River Urr, and events organised by the Solway Yacht Club. Kippford can only be accessed by car from Barnbarroch, passing by Craigieknowes Golf Course. Between Kippford and Rockcliffe lies the Mote of Mark, a hill fort. Victorian Kippford had interests in the granite quarrying industry.
