Maybole
Maybole is a burgh of barony and police burgh of South Ayrshire, Scotland. Pop. (2011) 4,760. It is situated 9 miles (14 km) south of Ayr as well as 50 miles (80 kilometres) southwest of Glasgow by the Glasgow and 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 stayed under the suzerainty of the Kennedys, afterwards Earls of Cassillis as well as (later on) Marquesses of Ailsa, one of the most effective household in Ayrshire. The Marquess of Ailsa lived at Cassillis House, just outside Maybole till its sale in 2007. In the late seventeenth century, a census recorded Maybole was residence to 28 "lords and landowners with estates in Carrick and beyond." In previous times, Maybole was the funding of the district of Carrick, Scotland, and also for long its particular attribute was the household manors of the barons of Carrick. Maybole Castle, a former seat of the Earls of Cassillis, dates to 1560 and still stays, although elements of the castle are deemed "of problem". The general public structures consist of the town-hall, the Ashgrove as well as the Lumsden fresh-air biweekly houses, and the Maybole mix poorhouse. Maybole is a brief range from the birthplace of Robert Burns, the Scots national poet. Burns's mom was a Maybole local, Agnes Brown. In the nineteenth century, Maybole became a centre of boot and footwear manufacturing. Margaret McMurray (?? -1760), one of the last native speakers of a Lowland language of Scottish Gaelic, is recorded to have lived at Cultezron (not to be puzzled with nearby Culzean), a farm on the outskirts of Maybole.
