Eastriggs

A huge government works manufacturing explosives and gunpowder once stretched from Longtown in the east to Annan in the west, a total of nine miles. The Eastriggs Heritage Project, in St John’s Church on Dunedin Road, traces the lives of the 30,000 workers who manufactured what Sir Arthur Conan Doyle called “The Devil’s Porridge”. At its height the whole complex employed more than 30,000 people from all over the United Kingdom.
