| CORSEHILL CASTLE (Ruin) | Corsehill Castle (Remains of) Corsehill Castle Corsehill Castle |
Sir Thomas M Cunningham Bart. [Baronet] of Corsehill Prop. [Proprietor] William MacKie A. Brown Esqr. |
013 | The ruins of this Castle stand on the west side of Clerkland Burn, a short distance North from Stewarton, all that remains is a Tower of considerable height (recently repaired) and on the East and North sides a quantity of Stones lime etc and a small portion of a wall a few feet in height. Sir J.M. Cunninghame says "There is good ground for belief that it was erected about 1540 and it was uninhabited till towards the end of the last century. It appears to have been of the ordinary style of the Scottish Castlellated residences of that date." |
