OS1/3/51/1/1 OCHILTREE Ochiltree Ochiltree Ochiltree Ochiltree Statistical Account Paterson's History of Ayrshire Johnston's County Map County Voters list 028, 034, 035, 040 041 046, 047 "Ochiltree is derived by Chalmers, in his Caledonia, from the British, Uchle tree, signifying the high town, or dwelling-place; by others, from the Gaelic Uchle, camp, to which tree is annexed, thereby forming Uchle -tree or Camp-tree, or from O'Chaltearan, which signifies a district of a country covered with trees of all kinds. Which of these derivations may be the proper one, it is difficult to determine; but any of them may be well applied to the situation of the place. The first name given answers to the site of the old Castle of Ochiltree, which is upon the brow of the high rocky banks of the Lugar, and the others may have arisen from a place called the Camp, and the rising ground, now occupied by the houses and gardens of the village, where there where at one time many large trees, probably of several hundred years of age. Ochiltree is bounded on the South by the parishes of New Cumnock and Dalmellington; on the east, by Old Cumnock & Auchinleck; on the north by the parish of Stair; and on [Continued overleaf]

OS1/3/51/1/2 OCHILTREE Statistical Account of Ayrshire, 1837 028, 034, 035, 040 041 046, 047 [Continued from previous page] "on the west, by Stair and Coylton. Taking the extreme points, it extends about 8 miles in length, by 5 in breadth, and contains, by the admeasurement of the several estates in it, 15,387 imperial acres, or 24 27/640 square miles. The greater part of the land lies on an elevation [of] from 400 to 1000 feet above the level of the sea, with a northern exposure, forming ridges of different lengths and heights running in general east to west, and connected with flat pieces of land composed of meadow and moss. The temperature is very variable, with considerable falls of rain. The soil is chiefly of a clayey nature, and the air often damp and and chilly. It frequently happens that the crops are late in ripening, and not well filled. There are many springs of excellent water in the parish. There are two lochs - one of them abount 27 acres in extent, and from 2 feet to 20 feet in depth, and the other of smaller dimensions. They are only useful as reservoirs for cattle in very dry seasons. These lochs, which [ly] quite open with gently rising grounds around them, could be easily drained, but it may be questionable whether the land to be thus gained would repay the expense of the necessary outlay. The Lugar runs between the parishes of Ochiltree and Auchinleck; and Coila divides the parish of Ochiltree from that of Coylton. The Burnock Water and Several other Small streams or burns fall at different points into the Lugar or Coila which run into the river Ayr." Extracted from the Statistical Account of Ayrshire (1837)

OS1/3/51/1/7 PEDEN'S CAVE Peden's Cave Peden's Cave Peden's Cave William Paterson Thomas Cuthbert W. M. Walker 034 This Cave is evidently artificial, as the marks of the chisel or other instrument used in the hollowing of it out, are quite visible. Cut in a solid freestone rock which rises about 20 feet perpendicular from the water edge. The bottom of the cave is about 10 feet above the bed of the river, 6 feet high, 4 wide and about 8 long. The only way of access to it is from the top by 6 steps each 15 inch apart cut in the rock. It is generally supposed by the people of the neighbourhood that the prophet Peden lay concealed here for some time, from which circumstance the name is derived.
OS1/3/51/1/7 [Page] 7 Sheet 34.4 Parish of Ochiltree Alexander Peden was born in 1626 and having become one of the Covenanting Ministers of the Church of Scotland (from 1666 to 1686) had occasion to secrete himself from the violence of the times. There is also a cave in the Parish of Sorn which he caused to be dug, and in which he was in the habit of hiding himself. -

Its north, east & west Sides are about Sixty feet high, and its South Side, from where the Sloping bank meets it is about twenty feet.

OS1/3/51/1/8 [Page] 8 Sheet 34.4 -- Parish of Ochiltree. [Note] "Of the old Castle of Ochiltree that stood on the banks "of the Lugar, nothing remains but the foundation; the "stones having been taken away at different times to build "houses & dikes on the adjoining farms." Statistical Account (1842) [Note] "There is," says the Statistical Account, "detached from the rock on the "banks of the Lugar, a large stone, about 60 feet high, by 40 feet in "length, and 20 feet in breadth, partially covered on the top with shrubs, " heather & grass. It is regarded as a great curiosity, and called, from its "'peculiar form, Kemp's Castle.' The name of this rock, or stone, can hardly "be derived from its 'peculiar form' though possibly from the Scottish word kemp, to "contend or compete. At the same time, there is a tradition of a famous robber, called "Kemp, having at one time existed in Scotland, whose name may have been given to such "retreats for the lawless as Kemp's Castle at Ochiltree."

To all appearances it has once been a quadrangular building, as the remaining portions of the walls indicate, which are from 2 to 5 feet high and about 5 feet in thickness. It stands in close proximity to Auchencloigh and a small portion of it has been converted into and is used as a sheep - ree. - To judge from the huge fragments which now remain it must have been a place of great strength, but there is no person in the neighbourhood can give any information as to when, or for what purpose it was erected and though it is known by some as Auchencloigh Castle, by others it is asserted as having been nothing more than a farmsteading.
