"The name of this parish is of Celtic derivation. The town of Girvan where the church stands was of old called Inver Garvan, from its being erected at the mouth of the river Garvan which here enters the sea. Garv-Aran of Garvan, signified the rough or rapid river. The river thus gave the name to the town, and the town to the parish
"The parish is founded on the east by the Ph [Parish] of Dailly Barr; on the south by the Ph [parish] of Colmonell on the west for nearly its whole length by the sea and on the north by the Ph [Parish]of Kirkoswald".
"A ridge of hills of considerable height stretches diagonally across the district". "On the south side of it the Ground is high and coarse and where not cultivated, covered with heath; on the north side, though not uniformly level, it is low and of fine quality".
Girvan is a burgh of barony. The charter was originally granted by Charles ll in 1668 to Mr Thomas Boyd of Ballochtoul and renewed by King William to Sir Archibald Muir of Thornton in the year 1696.
"The only antiquities of which the parish can boast are five circular encampments, generally regarded as ancient British strengths."

There are no detached portions of Girvan Ph [Parish] within any other Ph [parish]. |

" After (the river Clyde) passing Dumbarton it opens up into a noble estuary four miles in " width, spreading northwards into Loch"Long, and southwards into the Frith of "Clyde, with the Isles of Bute & Cumbraes, situated at the mouth of the estuary. "Here the Clyde expands into a firth, "averaging about thirty two miles in width, and at the distance of forty-eight miles becomes identified with the North Channel."

" The ancient castle of Ballochtoul stood between two trees at a short distance
" to the south East of the parish Church, in a field graced by what the good folks of the
" burgh style the big tree. This building belonged to the ancient family of the Boyds.
" No traces of the ruins now exist, the last remnant of the fabric having been removed
"about thirty years ago to build a house for the factor on the Bargany Estate."
Extracted from Wyllies 'Ayrshire Streams ' (published 1851)
" Southward from the Kirk of Girvan stands the tower of Ballochtowll, a monument
" of the builder's folly, being raised five story high, without a staircase, & nomore but
" one room in each story. ** The builder of this house, Boyd of Penkill, procured a

Ardmillan, is said to have been a Castle of some strength, in olden time, when surrounded by a deep broad ditch, possessing its draw-bridge; There is however, no trace, at the present day, of any moat or ditch: A portion of the house is of more recent erection, and a great part of the old building is very much out of repair: - The mansion house of Ardmillan was erected about the middle of the seventeenth century: Some alterations were made, and the whole building thoroughly repaired, a few years ago.- Three Storeys high- Slated, and in good repair- property of A.C.B. Crawford Esq of Ardmillan . |

" Families in the parish of Girvan. Craufuirds of Ardmillan.-
" Seat - Ardmillan House, about two miles south from the town of
" Girvan. in Balfour's Collections, Ardmillan is called a castle, and a
"glowing description is given of it by Abercrummie : 'Next to this
" (Turnberry) ' is the castle of Ardmillane, so much improven, of late, that it
"' looks like a Palace, built round , court- wayes; surrounded with a deep
"' broad ditch, and strengthened with a moveable bridge at the entry; able
"'to secure the owner from the suddain commotions and assaults of the wild
"' people of this corner, which on these occasions are sett upon robbery and
"'depradation; and to enable him the better to endure a seige, he is provided
"' of well in his court; and a hand - mill in the house , for grinding meall or malt'"
Pattersons History of Ayrshire (Published 1847)
" Ardmillan House the pilgrim may survey the dilapidated old hall;
"listen to the traditions of Queen Mary having slept there for a night ; visit
"with merited condemnation the taste of a Cockney wine-merchant , who while a
"tenant of the baronial pile, had the grey old castle whitewashed in the most
"approved fashion". Wyllies Ayrshire Streams (published 1851) |
