  • The Ayrshire Hermit
    Newsletter March 2012 F.O.L.K.F.O.L.K. NEWSLETTERNEWSLETTER Vandals strike again A phone call from a member of the public brought the sad news that Loudoun Kirk had once again been the target of vandals. The lady, who first advised us of the problem had been visiting her family grave just before Christmas and noticed pieces of lead at the base of the kirk. We have to carry out all repairs to the kirk according to Historic Scotland's standards and unfortunately we are not allowed to use any of the modern preventative measures to deter metal thieves. All the lead was taken from the kirk during autumn 2010 and the company who carried out the work of renewing the lead fitted the lead in such a way, that it would make it difficult for any would-be thief to remove it all again easily, whilst still working within the bounds of Historic Scotland's legislation. Thankfully this worked and recent attempts were thwarted by this simple but ingenious method. Although in this instance, the lead on one side has been badly damaged, none of it was removed. It can be clearly seen in the photograph how the lead on the lower half of the right side of the roof has been ripped up (with the use of an 18” chisel, found at the scene). Some of the lead tabs holding it on were taken off and sadly the stone cross broken off from the top. Although there is a reasonable amount of damage to the lead and cross, nothing has been taken.

  • Newmilns & Greenholm Community Action Plan 2021-2026 Profile
    Newmilns & Greenholm Community Action Plan 2021-2026 Profile 1. Brief Description and History 1.1 Early History Evidence of early habitation can be found across The Valley, with the earliest sites dating from around 2000 BC. To the east of Loudoun Gowf Course, evidence has been found of the existence of a Neolithic stone circle and a Neolithic burial mound lies underneath the approach to the seventh green. A site in Henryton uncovered a Neolith barrow containing stone axes (c. 1500 BC) and a Bronze Age cairn dating from about 1000 BC (the cairn itself contains cists which are thought to have been made by bronze weapons or tools). Following this early period, from around AD 200 evidence exists of not only a Roman camp at Loudoun Hill, but also a Roman road running through The Valley to the coast at Ayr. The camp was uncovered through quarry work taking place south of Loudoun Hill but tragically much of this evidence has been lost. According to local workmen, many of the uncovered remains & artefacts were taken with the rest of the quarried materials to be used in road construction projects. Typically, little is known of The Valley's history during the Dark Ages, but it seems likely that an important battle was fought around AD 575 at the Glen Water. In addition, given the strong strategic importance of Newmilns' position as a suitable fording place and a bottleneck on one of Scotland's main east-west trade routes, it is not unlikely that other battles and skirmishes occurred during this period.

  • November 2002
    November 2002 Before After Work at Kirk Nearing Completion The past year has seen many changes at the Kirk and at last the restoration work is nearing completion. Ivy and other vegetation that was eroding the West Gable have been removed and the masonry stabilised. The stone work has been cleaned, repaired or replaced and new guttering and down pipes fitted with drainage placed at the base of the building. Once bricked up windows have been re-opened and new grilles fitted. The rendering inside the Choir has been removed and returned to the original stone work and the wooden ceiling repaired giving a light airy atmosphere to the interior. The initial plan was to replace damaged of missing slates. Once the slates were removed vandals destroyed around 75% of them resulting in the fitting of an entire new roof. The vandalism of the roof slates in conjunction with the poor weather conditions and wrangles over work required and funding has delayed much of the work. Although the keys to the Kirkyard are still in the hands of contractors, it is now only minor alterations required to comply with Historic Scotland. Lady Barbara Countess of Loudoun has kindly gifted the funds for replacement gates to the Kirk. Currently we are seeking funds for the repair and stabilising of the Burn wall and replacement of the bridge parapet at the Kirk entrance to make it safe and provide more suitable car parking facilities.

  • Spring 2005 Forthcoming Events 3Rd May FOLK A.G.M
    Spring 2005 Many of you may be aware of one of the Kirk's more unfortunate grave markers, known locally as the Witch's Stone. This common misnomer is derived from the stones prominent mortality symbols, depicting a skull and cross bones. Far from being the grave of a witch, this is the stone of a tailor, marked by an iron and needle. It is the only visible stone with such symbols remaining in the Kirk, and as such it has always been the centre of local speculation. I call it unfortunate, due to the events which have occurred over the last 10 years, since the founding of FOLK. Back in 1995, this stone was still upright and in it's original position. By 1997 the stone had been toppled broken in two. This left it prone to the destructive force of the council where in addition to being weakened by weedkiller, it was chipped by bumps from the lawnmower, and a large chunk was removed by a strimmer. Luckily the stone still had all it’s writing and symbols intact. During an event at the Kirk last year, it was noted that the stone had vanished without a trace. Searches of the local undergrowth and fields proved fruitless and the stone was thought lost. At a recent talk I even joked, if anyone had seen it decorating someone’s garden, please could we have it returned. Little did I realise that the stone would miraculously reappear. On a recent trip, to assess the damage to the burn wall at the Kirk entrance, we noted the stone had been returned back to it's original position.

The story of the Historic Families of Ayrshire is one of «xceptional interest, as well from the personal as from the county, as here and there from the national, standpoint. As one traces it along the centuries he realises, what it is sometimes difficult to do in a general historical survey, what sort of men they were who carried on the succession of events, and obtains many a glimpse into their own character that reveals their individuality and their idiosyncracies, as well as the motives that actuated and that animated them.
