Polharrow Burn


Polharrow Burn is a small watercourse in Kirkcudbrightshire, Galloway, Scotland, which rises in Loch Harrow and flows towards St John's Town of Dalry before joining the Water of Ken.
It gives its name to a Scottish country dance by the cryptographer and Scottish country dance deviser Hugh Foss, which appeared in his Glendarroch Scottish Country Dance Collection in 1966. He published several volumes of these from his own impress, Glendarroch Press. He lived in his retirement at Glendarroch in St John's Town of Dalry and died in 1971.
