In 2020 we embark upon the mission of finding a permanent home for Crockett's archive and library. We're looking for a place to become a Crockett 'hub' and host a permanent exhibition. For more than five years we have been the online go-to place to find out more about Crockett's life and works, but now we are turning our minds to getting a real place. 
In the 1920s Galloway Raiders set upon getting a memorial and a century on, we're looking to develop a bigger presence for Crockett in the region, a place from which to grow his reputation and serve as a literary tourism destination. It's an ambitious project and will take time and no small effort.   We look forward to your feedback and comments about where best Crockett might be re-homed! Most of the likely candidates are now privately owned. See below:
