[Page] 151"Dalry is a Parish of early origin, and the Church which
Stands in the centre of the Village, was dedicated to
the Scottish Queen St. Margaret, on whose festival,
in the month of July, and Annual fair is still
held. This Church was a dependancy of the
Monastery of Kilwinning, the present Church
is plain and modern, and scarcely any vestige
of antiquity remains to be seen about it."
