Maybole is a burgh of barony and also cops burgh of South Ayrshire, Scotland. Pop. (2011) 4,760. It is positioned 9 miles (14 kilometres) south of Ayr as well as 50 miles (80 kilometres) southwest of Glasgow by the Glasgow as well as South Western Railway. Maybole has Middle Ages origins, getting 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, afterwards Earls of Cassillis as well as (later on) Marquesses of Ailsa, one of the most powerful household 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 residence to 28 "lords and landowners with estates in Carrick and beyond." In former times, Maybole was the funding of the area of Carrick, Scotland, as well as for long its characteristic attribute was the household mansions of the barons of Carrick. Maybole Castle, a former seat of the Earls of Cassillis, dates to 1560 and also still stays, although elements of the castle are deemed "of concern". The general public buildings include the town-hall, the Ashgrove and the Lumsden fresh-air biweekly homes, and the Maybole combination poorhouse. Maybole is a brief range from the birthplace of Robert Burns, the Scots national poet. Burns's mom was a Maybole citizen, Agnes Brown. In the 19th century, Maybole came to be a centre of boot and footwear manufacturing. Margaret McMurray (?? -1760), among the last indigenous speakers of a Lowland dialect of Scottish Gaelic, is recorded to have lived at Cultezron (not to be perplexed with neighboring Culzean), a farm on the outskirts of Maybole.
