The village of Hightae is one of the Royal Four Towns of Lochmaben (planned C18 villages), the others being Greenhill, Heck and Smallholm. Hightae boasts a church, post office, school and pub. The Hightae Church of Scotland Kirk was built as a Relief meeting house and later altered for the Reformed Presbyterians (Cameronians). The Royal Four Towns Hall (1910) has red sandstone dressing with a small statue of Robert the Bruce. The War Memorial (seen in the picture) was erected around 1920.
