Pay a visit and enjoy a warm welcome which includes tea and biscuits, conversation and stories.</p> 1940s Museum 1065 current,55.09961,-3.366537; 5 Hallmuir Camp Lockerbie 11160 No Lockerbie, Dumfries and Galloway 7/9/2019 8/9/2019 10 am till 5 pm 10 am till 5 pm <p>Directions: From Lochmaben follow A709 towards Lockerbie and take the first right turn after the traffic lights on the river bridge.
