The Secret Spy Mission in Whithorn - Can YOU Save the Machars?

Attention all agents! The Scottish Secret Spy Hidden Hood (SSSHH) has uncovered a devious plot by eastern bloc spies to split the Machars from mainland Scotland. These enemy agents have transported an unusual device to the area, intercepted by SSSHH operatives. But time is of the essence-the device is set to activate in just 10 hours, turning the Machars into a floating, movable base for the enemy. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to discover the deactivation code and save the Machars from a watery fate!

Spy Mission Through Whithorn and Beyond

Join the ranks of the SSSHH and embark on this thrilling self-guided spy mission through Whithorn and its surrounding villages. Starting at the Whithorn Story Visitor Centre, you'll follow the Trail to the Priory and New Town Hall before heading to the villages of Sorbie and Garlieston. From there, you'll make your way to the Isle of Whithorn and St Ninians Chapel, before returning to Whithorn.

But beware-enemy agents may be lurking around every corner. Keep your eyes peeled for sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments as you work to crack the code and complete the mission, just like a true secret agent.

SSSHH… Will YOU be able to save the day and prevent the Machars from floating off into the Irish Sea?
