Maybole
Maybole is a burgh of barony and also cops burgh of South Ayrshire, Scotland. Pop. (2011) 4,760. It is situated 9 miles (14 kilometres) south of Ayr and 50 miles (80 km) southwest of Glasgow by the Glasgow and South Western Railway. Maybole has Middle Ages origins, obtaining a charter from Donnchadh, Earl of Carrick in 1193. In 1516 it was made a burgh of regality, although for generations it remained under the suzerainty of the Kennedys, after that Earls of Cassillis as well as (later on) Marquesses of Ailsa, one of the most effective family in Ayrshire. The Marquess of Ailsa lived at Cassillis House, just outside Maybole up until 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 former times, Maybole was the funding of the district of Carrick, Scotland, as well as for long its particular feature was the family manors of the barons of Carrick. Maybole Castle, a previous seat of the Earls of Cassillis, dates to 1560 and also still remains, although elements of the castle are viewed as "of issue". The general public buildings consist of the town-hall, the Ashgrove and the Lumsden fresh-air biweekly residences, and also the Maybole mix poorhouse. Maybole is a short distance from the birth place of Robert Burns, the Scots national poet. Burns's mommy was a Maybole resident, Agnes Brown. In the 19th century, Maybole became a centre of boot and also footwear production. 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 confused with close-by Culzean), a farm on the outskirts of Maybole.
