A cluster of Uniq Remarkable stones, eight in number, five of which are Standing erect about five feet high, on an acreage. The remaining three are lying flat on the surface. Some suppose them to be Druidicial, but the irregularity of their possition would almost Contradict the belief. The old people of the Neighbourhood have a kind of tradition respecting these stones. They say that a great battle was fought here once, but by whom or at what time they do not know and that these stone were placed here to Mark the Spots where renowned Chieftains fell. They are a kind of hard whin stone peculiar to this Parish and of different Shapes.

CAIRN (Site of) [Drumanwherran] |

074 |
This place seems to derive its name from two Gaelic Words - Druine - a Hill and Carn a Cairn - genitive - a chuirne pronounced - Druim a Chuirne, signifying the Hill of the Cairn. At the present day the Site of an Ancient Cairn can be distinctly traced.

"The ancient name of this parish was Kirkcudbright Innertig - from the church, which, dedicated to St. Cuthbert Stood at the influx of the Tig - It was changed to Ballantrae in 1617, when the new church built there by the Laird of Bargany, in 1604, was constituted the parish church by act of Parliament"
Patersons Hist [History] of Ayr.
"The Surface is considerably diversified by hill and dale, being a succession of low ridges nearly parallel to each other, running from west to east, and in general rising in height as they recede from the coast. there are four Such ridges, of which the highest is the third recKoning from the north. In this ridge the highest hill is Beinerard, which is 1430 feet above the level of the Sea."
"The only river of any size in Ballantrae is the Stinchar. It has its source in the parish of Barr, flows south-west, crosses Colmonell, forms the northern boundary of part of Ballantrae, then flows through it for about three miles and discharges itself after a course of about thirty miles into the Irish Sea."
