[Further notes - Glengarnock Castle]
The ruins show neither the Arrow slit nor gun-port of defence
So common in Similar old houses. Perhaps the situation
was itself so secure as to render unnecessary the
ordinary means of repelling an attack. The uniformity
of style in all castellated mansions, erected prior to the discovery of gunpowder
renders it hazardous to be precise regarding the date of their construction.
For, however, conversant with such remains of feudal architecture, would
hesitate to asign to the ruins of this Stronghold, any antiquity as remote
as that of any remains of masonry in the West of Scotland. It is
not, therefore, improbable that Glengarnock Castle may have
existed in the time of the De Morvilles, though the conjecture of
its having been the residence of these ancients lords of Cunninghame,
appears written to nearly the Same Consideration as that of its having
been the Castle of Hardyknute.

The site of the Tumulus mentioned in the Statistical Acct.

The spot shown is situated on the farm of Langlands, near the north west corner of a field; about 12 chains north west of the farmhouse and about 4 chains from R. [River] Garnock. Nothing is visible on the ground at the spot, except the grass being slightly discoloured - |

"In 1836, a stone Coffin, containing remains of
"Human bones, was discovered on the farm of
"Langlands, about 3/4 of a mile N. [North] of Kilbirnie.
"The tumulus over it was by much the most remarkable
"object of the kind in this quarter. It stood on the level
"part of a field, Skirted by the Garnock on the West. It was
"of a circular form, 100 feet in diameter, and 6 feet in height, Originally
"it had been much higher, but about the beginning of the century, a
"great quantity of stones were taken from the summit to form
"a road in the neighbourhood." New Stat, Acct, [New Statistical Account]

[Note] "It is impossible from any peculiarities in the
"masonry of this feudal tower, to ascertain the
"period of its construction. The absence of gun-ports in its walls, a provision of
"defence with which every stronghold erected subsequently for the use of firearms
"was furnished, seems to imply that it was built, at the latest in the early part of the fourteenth century
"and consequently in the day of the Barclays, the most anciently recorded Lords of the Barony
"The modern part of the edifice was built about 1627, and must have proved a satisfactory

"This Church is the most ancient, and in some respects, the most

" the body of the edifice, a simple oblong, 65 feet in the length and 29
