Parish of Stewarton -- 12 .15 T. [Trace] 3
"The mansion house of Kennox, built by James Sommerville, about 172, Still exists, but has been extensively
added to by his successors, at different periods, It is set down amidst fine old woods
in a cuive of the water of Glazart, about 2 miles west from Stewarton. Close to the house is a Yew
tree, of remarkable size and beauty. From its dimensions it is computed to be upwards of 900 years
old, & is still vigorous. As the Yew tree, in this country, was usually planted in the immediate vicinity
of family residences, this would infer great antiquity
for the site of Kennox, formerly Crevoch"
