A new haven for a rare mammal will be unveiled near Newton Stewart this weekend.

The Vincent Wildlife Trust has been working with Forestry and Land Scotland to create a pine marten haven at Kirroughtree Visitor Centre thanks to funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

The development, part of the charity’s Martens on the Move project, will give visitors the chance to learn about pine martens thanks to a new hide and information boards.
