Maybole
Maybole is a burgh of barony and police burgh of South Ayrshire, Scotland. Pop. (2011) 4,760. It is located 9 miles (14 km) south of Ayr and also 50 miles (80 kilometres) southwest of Glasgow by the Glasgow and also South Western Railway. Maybole has Middle Ages roots, getting 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, later on Earls of Cassillis and (later) Marquesses of Ailsa, one of the most powerful family in Ayrshire. The Marquess of Ailsa lived at Cassillis House, simply outside Maybole up until its sale in 2007. In the late seventeenth century, a census recorded Maybole was home to 28 "lords and landowners with estates in Carrick and beyond." In former times, Maybole was the resources of the district of Carrick, Scotland, and for long its characteristic function was the family manors of the barons of Carrick. Maybole Castle, a former seat of the Earls of Cassillis, dates to 1560 and still remains, although elements of the castle are viewed as "of problem". The general public buildings include the town-hall, the Ashgrove and the Lumsden fresh-air biweekly homes, as well as the Maybole mix poorhouse. Maybole is a brief range from the birth place of Robert Burns, the Scots national poet. Burns's mother was a Maybole homeowner, Agnes Brown. In the nineteenth century, Maybole came to be a centre of boot and also shoe manufacturing. Margaret McMurray (?? -1760), one of the last native audio speakers of a Lowland language of Scottish Gaelic, is recorded to have actually lived at Cultezron (not to be perplexed with nearby Culzean), a farm on the outskirts of Maybole.
