  • The Glen Farm, Skyreburn
    The Glen Farm, Skyreburn A Historical summary by Margaret Wright for Christopher Bond c.14th Century An estate or barony existed called Glen or Glenskyreburn which belonged to the Carson family, who lived at Rusco Tower in the Fleet Valley. This estate would seem to cover all of Skyreburn Glen, Glen Farm not existing as such. 1494 John Acarsan gifted “Glenskireburn” to his daughter Mariota on her marriage to Robert Gordon of Lochinvar provided she retained the name Acarsan. 16th Century Skyreburn was part of Lochinvar Estates owned by the Gordon family. 1734 It is not clear when the Murray family bought or inherited the lands of Skyreburn, but it is reported that in 1734 Alexander Murray of Cally & Broughton built a “pavilion” which is now the farmhouse at Glen Farm. This was a house that may have been built as 'a shooting box'. It was typically Georgian, being 5 windows wide on 2 floors, plus attics and a central entry on the ground floor. There is a foundation stone which reads 'Founded 22 June 1734 by I. McD'. The McDowel family rented and managed the 3 farms at the head of the Skyreburn valley, Meikle Glen, Glenend and Little Glen which were part of the neighbouring Pibble Farm that was owned by John Murray of Hornby Hall in Lancashire. Alexander Murray was born in 1680. He married Lady Euphemia Stewart, daughter of the Earl of Galloway. Alexander died in 1751 when his son James Murray (born 1727) inherited the estate. Alexander Murray’s ‘pavilion’ that is now Glen Farmhouse 1799 It is likely that parts, if not all, of Skyreburn were sold in the late 1700s to became part of Glenquicken Estate.

  • Place-Names in and Around the Fleet Valley
    Place-names in and around the Fleet Valley ==== A ==== Academy Land The land on the Cally Estate between the house that had been built in 1796 for the Episcopalian chaplain of Cally and rector of Gatehouse or Cally Academy (see Cushat Wood below) and the presumed Episcopalian chapel (see Cross Cottage) is marked as Academy Land on the 1st edition OS map. It was probably allowed to the Academy for growing food. Part of it is now covered by the Cally Woods, the rest forms part of the Cally Golf Course. The Acre The Acre is marked on the 1st edition OS map but not modern ones, on a strip of woodland between the road up Skyreburn Glen and the Burn itself, between Damhead and Lagganmullan Smithy. The name (Old English æcer, Old Norse akr) originally just meant ‘a plot or strip of cultivated land’, notionally as much as a yoke of oxen could plough in a day, and the place-name scholar Margaret Gelling has suggested that it may have developed the particular sense of ‘a piece of marginally cultivated land of limited extent’. This linear plot seems to conform more to that definition than to the later sense of a specific measure of ploughland, it may be a recently-vanished trace of Northumbrian, Norse or early Scots usage. Aikyhill Aikyhill, upstream of Carstramon on the east side of the confluence of the Big and Little Waters of Fleet, looks to be Scots, ‘oaky hill’. The adjective aikie is only found in the SND in the mysterious though delightful children’s phrase aikie guineas recorded by Jamieson (1822) for ‘small flat shells bleached by the sea’; ‘oaky’ was used figuratively in English for ‘hard, tough’ in the seventeenth century, but as ‘abounding in oaks’ only from the mid-nineteenth, according to the OED.

  • Place-Names in and Around the Fleet Valley
    Place-names in and around the Fleet Valley ==== B ==== Bagbie Bagbie farm near Kirkbride Church above Carsluith is significant as a Scandinavian place-name, with –býr, the Old West Norse (Norwegian) word for a farm. Place-name scholars have been much exercised with the difference between the sense and distribution of this term and that of the East Norse (Danish) cognate bý, which tends to refer rather to villages, and is common in Yorkshire and the East Midlands (the Danelaw), but also occurs in Cumbria and Dumfriesshire (Canonbie, Lockerbie etc.). Bagbie is pretty definitely a West Norse example. The first element is probably Old Norse baggi, ‘bag’, perhaps referring to the hollow in which the farm is sheltered, or else used as a nickname for a farmer with a big belly. Again, place-name scholars reckon that Scandinavian names with descriptive elements are more likely to reflect primary settlement by Viking colonists, and this is likely to be the case here, so ‘farm in a bag-shaped hollow’ may be the name they gave. Begbie near Haddington in East Lothian is probably another *baggi-bý; a lost Bagbie in the Wiston area of upper Clydesdale may well have been a third, though a Flemish form of the nickname might have been involved there. Balmaghie The name of this parish is recorded from the 15th century on, and is undoubtedly Gaelic *baile MacGaoith. Baile is a very common term for a farm throughout much of Gaelic Scotland, but it was one that came into general use relatively late in the middle ages, when older, larger estates were being broken up into more compact tenancies.
