  • Geology Around Portencross Castle
    GEOLOGY AROUND About Portencross Castle Portencross has been inhabited for thousands of years. An archaeological dig found evidence of PORTENCROSS an Iron Age settlement on Auldhill, just behind Portencross Castle. The Iron Age lasted from around 800 BC to 100 BC. Portencross Castle was constructed in three phases starting in 1360. It was the home of a branch of the Boyds. The lands around Portencross were given to the Boyds of Kilmarnock by King Robert I CASTLE as reward for their help at the Battle of Bannockburn. A number of Royal Charters were signed at the castle and it had close links with King Robert II during that period. After the 1600s, it was occupied by local fishermen. The roof was destroyed in a gale in January 1739. By the 20th century, the Adams of Auchenames owned the castle. It became a scheduled ancient Sandy’s Creek monument in 1955. Mudstone Friends of Portencross Castle For Teachers The Friends of Portencross Castle (FOPC) produced this leaflet. They were helped by a survey The subject of this leaflet is likely to complement any work you are doing in relation by the Strathclyde RIGS group. to the study of the earth’s crust.

  • Three Ayrshire Castles
    THE ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE SOCIETY OF SCOTLAND STRATHCLYDE GROUP SUMMER STUDY DAY THREE AYRSHIRE CASTLES Dundonald, Hunterston & Portencross Coach Tour on Saturday 23rd July 2016 from Glasgow The AHSS is a Registered Scottish Charity (No SCO 007554 REG) The Society is a Company Limited by Guarantee: SC356726 Dundonald Castle This fortified tower house was built for Robert Stewart probably on his accession to the throne of Scotland as Robert II in 1371 and was used as a royal residence by him and his son, Robert II. The castle is owned by Historic Environment Scotland, and both it and the Visitor Centre at the foot of the hill are run by The Friends of Dundonald Castle who will be giving us a guided tour. We will be having morning coffee/tea in the Visitor Centre; this is included in the price below. For non-members of Historic Scotland an entrance charge of £3.50 will be taken on the day. Hunterston Castle The former home of the Hunters of Hunterston. Although the earliest reference to the Hunter family is in 1116, the oldest part of Hunterston Castle, the pele tower, probably dates to the 13 th Century when it replaced a timber fortress; the extension containing the Great Hall was built in the 17 th Century. The Hunter family moved out of the castle at the beginning of the 19 th Century, when nearby Hunterston House was built. The castle was restored and altered by Sir Robert Lorimer in 1913. Hunterston Castle is now the headquarters of Clan Hunter. We will also be visiting the walled garden, and the lawn in front of the castle will provide a spacious venue for our picnic lunches (weather permitting!) Portencross Castle Another castle associated with Robert II—a stopping-off place on his way to Rothesay Castle—the building of Portencross began in the mid to late 1300s by the de Ross family.

  • Birdwatching in Ayrshire and Arran
    Birdwatching in Ayrshire and Arran Note on the on-line edition: The original leaflet (shown on the right) was published in 2003 by the Ayrshire Branch of the SOC and was so popular that the 20,000 print run is now gone. We have therefore published this updated edition on-line to ensure people interested in Ayrshire’s birds (locals and visitors) can find out the best locations to watch our birds. To keep the size of the document to a minimum we have removed the numerous photographs that were in the original. The on- line edition was first published in November 2005. Introduction This booklet is a guide to the best birding locations in Ayrshire and Arran. It has been produced by the Ayrshire branch of the SOC with help from individuals, local organisations and authorities. It should be used in conjunction with our website (www.ayrshire-birding.org.uk) which gives extra details. Additions and corrections can be reported via the website. The defining influences on Ayrshire as an environment for birds and other wildlife are its very long coast-line (135km not counting islands), and the fact that it lies almost entirely in the rift valley between the Highland Boundary Fault and the Southern Upland Fault. Exceptions to this generally lowland character are the mountains of north Arran, our own little bit of the Highlands, and the moorlands and hills of the south and south-east fringes of the county. The mild climate has resulted in a mainly pastoral agriculture and plenty of rivers and lochs, making it good for farmland and water birds.
