"Old Cumnock, and New Cumnock parishes, were formerly comprehended in one extensive parish. The name of Cumnock is derived from the British Cwm, a hollow, or valley and Cnoc, a hill; forming Cwm-cnoc, which is usually pronounced Cumnock”- The extreme length of this parish is about 10 1/2 miles from N. to S. [North to South] and from E. to W. [East to West] its extreme length is about 10 miles. It is bounded on the N. [North] by Old Cumnock and Auchinleck. On the E. [East] by Kirkconnel, Sanquhar and Dalry- on the S. [South] by Carsphairn, and on the W. [West] by Dalmellington & Ochiltree-
The Antiquities of the extensive parish are few- There is no detached portion of any parish within this, nor of this within any others. |

There are no remains of this castle - It was used to furnish building materials and to make room for more modern structures. The Free Church stands near its site, which was pointed out by a person who assisted in the removal of the foundation stones.
"The few antiquities of the parish are the site of the Castle of Black Craig - on the summit of the Knoll on which the Castle village stands. The [--] of the Castle is still very distinct; but all the stones were removed about fifty years ago, and employed in the building of houses. This castle was the property of the Dunbars of Mochnam [?] and said to have been frequented by the renowned Sir William Wallace" New Statistical Account p. [page] 517 |

On this spot stood "Buchanny Cairn." It consisted of a large heap of Stones, which were removed some years ago, to build dikes and houses in the neighbourhood. In the Centre was found a Stone Coffin and some fine mould of a blackish appearance.
Mr. Miller of Laight (who pointed out the Cairn's Site) - States that there could have been very little short of 3000 Cartloads of Stones in it.
The field is still called 'Cairn Park. And the name appears on an old Estate Map, dated 1772. |

A rocky precipice bounding on one Side a deep Glen, Situated at the Source of Connel Burn Messrs Murray & Johnstone State that this name is derived from "Bohun", the name of a proprietor of the ground who lived in the days of Robert Bruce.
They also state that Bruce was pursued by de Bohun's Bloodhounds into this glen and that he drew blood from his arm which he scattered on the ground in order to escape the pursuit.
It appears that if the Bloodhound sees blood or sents it, when found out on the ground, he will not proceed any farther, and perhaps considers that his mission has been performed - |
