Maybole
Maybole is a burgh of barony and authorities burgh of South Ayrshire, Scotland. Pop. (2011) 4,760. It is positioned 9 miles (14 kilometres) south of Ayr and also 50 miles (80 km) southwest of Glasgow by the Glasgow as well as South Western Railway. Maybole has Middle Ages roots, obtaining a charter from Donnchadh, Earl of Carrick in 1193. In 1516 it was made a burgh of regality, although for generations it continued to be under the suzerainty of the Kennedys, afterwards Earls of Cassillis and also (later on) Marquesses of Ailsa, one of the most effective household in Ayrshire. The Marquess of Ailsa lived at Cassillis House, simply outside Maybole until its sale in 2007. In the late seventeenth century, a census recorded Maybole was house to 28 "lords and landowners with estates in Carrick and beyond." In former times, Maybole was the resources of the area of Carrick, Scotland, as well as for long its particular function was the family mansions of the barons of Carrick. Maybole Castle, a previous seat of the Earls of Cassillis, dates to 1560 and also still remains, although aspects of the castle are viewed as "of worry". The public structures consist of the town-hall, the Ashgrove and also the Lumsden fresh-air biweekly houses, and the Maybole mix poorhouse. Maybole is a short distance from the birthplace of Robert Burns, the Scots national poet. Burns's mom was a Maybole resident, Agnes Brown. In the 19th century, Maybole became a centre of boot and also shoe production. Margaret McMurray (?? -1760), one of the last native speakers of a Lowland language of Scottish Gaelic, is recorded to have actually lived at Cultezron (not to be puzzled with close-by Culzean), a farm on the borders of Maybole.
