Galloway is the name given to the area which takes up the extreme south-west of Scotland, and which was joined up with neighbouring Dumfries-shire to the east in the mid 1970s to form Dumfries and Galloway Region.
Main Galloway towns include Stranraer, Wigtown, Kirkcudbright and Castle Douglas.

Galloway isn't a town. Dumfries and Galloway is a Scottish county, in the south west of the country.
