Carse, a small bay in Kirkbean parish, SE Kirkcudbrightshire, in the estuary of the Nith, 1 mile NNE of Kirkbean village. A foreshore of about 6000 acres, the Carse Sands, spreads eastward and south-eastward from it to the channel of the Nith; is all bare during a considerable time before and after low water; and renders the navigation, during the flow tide, particularly dangerous. See Carsethorn.
