Stewarton, 8th. Feby. [February] 1856
Sir
I have made enquiry respecting
the "Burying Ground and Pathway"
mentioned in Patersons History
of Ayr. but have not obtained
any satisfactory information
respecting them. The Revd. [Reverend]
William Gebbie recommended me to apply
to George Howie (an old man
residing in Dunlop village) but
he had never heard of any Burying
Ground being near the Chapel; but
said that near it there was a
sort of path by which the summit
of the rocks could be reached.
I made a survey of the place a trace
of which is enclosed.
At C there is a hollow place in
the rocks, by which a kind of shelf
or terrace is reached, this leads
upwards & in some places from
Capt. [Captain] Bayley R.E. [Royal Engineers]

Ordnance Survey - Ayr county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Ayr, which is in the south west of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
