What's it All About?

Our Newmilns Heritage App launched on Saturday, 10th May 2025, at a Heritage event in the Church Hall.

The new app encompasses three heritage trails:

• The Town Centre Trail
  Explore the historic buildings in the town, a charming mix of local history and scenic riverside paths
• The Full Walking Trail
  An extended walk around Newmilns, including locations from the textile and industrial heritage of the town
• The Football Heritage Trail
  Discover how Newmilns played a role in the development of Scottish football.
  
• Plus - Eye Spy & Challenges
  A fun game for families to enjoy with clues hidden around the streets and a spooky graveyard treasure hunt at Loudoun Paris Church

As well as the walking trails, the app features:

• A historical timeline of Newmilns from the current century back to 12 A.D. and earlier
• Then and now views to allow you to compare the differences over the years
• Audio and video memories of the town
• Links to local groups, events and businesses
  

The Love Newmilns Heritage app was commissioned by the Newmilns Regeneration Association and developed by the Newmilns Heritage Group, with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, to whom we are very grateful.

What if I didn't make it to the app launch?

Don't worry if you didn't make it to the App Launch Event - we will be giving out a QR Code to allow you to scan and go directly to the download page, where you can download the App after the event. Keep an eye out on social media or for posters around town.
