[Statistical Account] 007 A hill of considerable elevation, on which are the remains of an ancient Fort, described in the Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account] of the Parish, as having been formed of 3 concentric walls of stone, the greater part of the materials of which were removed to make fences. In the Acct. [Account] there is mention made of the vestiges of a Fosse being visible at the foot of the hill, but I have seen nothing, that I can take upon myself to say, are vestiges of a Fosse. I have made every enquiry at several persons, but could not obtain any information concerning it.
OS1/3/20/61 FORT (Remains of) [Carwinning Hill] 007 Relative to the fort, Mr. Paton of Swinlees, has pointed out the remains of the walls which are marked on the plan as far as they can now be traced, he says that he got part of the stones removed which formed the walls of the fort; but that most of the stones were removed before his time.
OS1/3/20/61 [Page] 61 Dalry CAERwinning Hill - New Stat Acct. [New Statistical Account] This throughout Scotland, when found as the first syllable of the names of places, is invariably spelled Car - see Carberry Tower near Edinburgh, Carbrook, Cardross Car - when found as the first syllable of the names of places, seems to signify, fortified. as Carstairs Carlisle etc. Jamieson On the Summit of Caerwinning hill are the remains of an ancient fortification. It appears to have formed of three concentric circles or walls of stone, inclosing a space of 2 acres. The greater part of the materials of which it was composed have been removed to build fences, &c The outer wall cannot now be easily traced , but from what remains, it appears to have been from 10 to 12 feet in thickness. The entrance has been on the western side. It must have been a place of great strength, and commands a view of the surrounding Country for many miles. The stones must have been brought from a considerable distance, being as species tuffaceous trap, while the hill itself is composed of felspar porphyry. It is believed that the Scottish army were encamped in this fortification previous to the Battle of Largs. New Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account]

Mr. Reddet does not remember of any bones or other remains being found but the soil being very dry and porous may probably account for this.

OS1/3/20/129 [Page] 129 Court Hill, from page 220 "In the vicinity of the town is an ancient mound called the Court Hill. It is of a conical form , and is covered with the finest verdure. These mounds appear to have been the places for dispensing justice. A Stone, which tradition asserts to have supported the gallows, formerly stood a little east of the moat. A few years ago an attempt was made to level this interesting Monument of antiquity, in order to fill up some hollows in the field where it is situated, but the hill proving to have been formed of rubbish, the design was abandoned, not, however till its appearance was greatly disfigured." New Statistical Account " We had no written laws before the reign of Malcolm Canmore, who was proclaimed King in the year 1057. Before this period our Kings as judges, sat on little Mounts, and heard and decided controversies, for which reason the place was commonly called the Mute Hill. Besides the King there were other judges, called brehons, who at certain times or terms, sat on such little Artificial green hillocks or Mounts, each named tome - moid that is the Court- hillock, many of which being still remaining in Scotland, especially in the highlands. As to the appellation of brehon, that is probably owing to their sitting on hills; for as bie or bre, in the Gaelic signifies a hill. Brehon I take to import the Sitter on a hill" Maitland's History of Scotland. page 167.

OS1/3/20/207 Site of BATTLE between the Royalistsa and Covenanters [Pencote] A Battle fought here between the Royalists and the Covenanters Captain Blair of Blair 012 Captain Blair who marked the site on Trace, states that in the year 1666, or 1668, a battle was fought here between the Parliamentarian army under Claverhouse, and the Covenanters. For some days previous to the engagement the Covenanters lay concealed in a place called 'Cleeves Cove' and afterwards marched in a Northerly direction, when, near to a place called 'Pencote' they were met by an opposing Army, both armies fought, but the result of the engagement is not known. A few relics have been found here, such as a pistol, and one or two other things of trifling importance, Captain Blair stated that he had in his possession some time ago a written document, referring to this action, though

This document Captain Blair has promised to produce when it is in his power to do so. From other sources little information can be gleaned, and no allusion is made in any of the Historical Works to it in the description of the Parish. A skirmish may have taken place, for in 1666, an insurrection broke out in this Parish against the Privy Council's measures for the Creation of Episcopany.

OS1/3/20/216 Sheet XII.5 -- Trace 4 -- Ph. [Parish] of Dalry -- Co. [County] Ayr "On the estate of Blair, in the romantic and beautifully wooded Glen of the Dusk, there is "a natural Cave in a precipitous, bank of Limestone. It is about 40 feet above the bed "of the stream, and is covered by about 30 feet of rock and earth. It has two entrances. The west " or main entrance is situated below a vast overhanging rock, 30 feet long by 27 in breadth, the brow of which " is covered by the mountain ash, hazel and two large plane trees. Its interior resembles Gothic " arched work. Part of the roof is supported by two massy columns. Its length is about 183 " feet and breadth from 5 to 12. Near the middle, it expands into a Spacious chamber, 35 feet long by " 12 broad and 12 high. In former times, popular belief peopled it with elves. It consequently " acquired the name of Elf house. In later days , during the tyrannical reign of " Charles II it afforded a hiding place to the Covenanters of this Parish from the " violence of their infuriated persecutors." New Stat. Acct.
