COYLTON | [continued from page 1] and its contigous dells & ridges, both stream & parish may have had their designation from this circumstance - and the name would then signify the stream of the hazlewood grove, a place of hazlewoods. *** Coylton was formerly of smaller dimensions than at present. The original parish lies along the south banks of the Coyle. About the end of the seventeenth or beginning of the eighteenth century that portion of it lying on the north & east side of this stream was taken from Ochiltree, & annexed Quoad sacra to Coylton."
