Abbey, a burn and a small headland in Rerwick parish, Kirkcudbrightshire. The burn rises near Doon Hill, and runs about 6 miles southward, past Dundrennan Abbey, to the Solway Firth, at the small harbour of Burnfoot. The headland flanks the W side of that harbour, 3½ miles E of the entrance of Kirkcudbright Bay.
