OS1/21/12/1 CARNWATH [parish] Carnwath Carnwath Carnwath Carnwath Carnwath Carnwath Carnwath Revd. Alexander McLean Revd. James Walker Mr. Walter Watson Mr. David Aitken Statistical Account Johnston's County Map dated 1816 Forrest's County Map 013; 014; 015; 020; 021; 026; 027 The parish of Carnwath is in the County of Lanark, Presbytery of Lanark, and Synod of Glasgow and Ayr. In some of the old writings belonging to the family of Lockhart of Lee, who is now the proprietor of the estate, I find it frequently written Cairnwath. The name is de-scriptive of the situation of the place, as there is a Cairn immediately west of the house and village of Carnwath, and near the bottom of that Cairn there is a Wath, which means in the Saxon language a Ford. Such is probably the derivation of the name. The parish is very extensive, being 12 miles from south to north, and 8 from east to west. It is bounded on the West by the parish of Carstairs; on the east by Dunsyre; on the south by the parishes of Libberton and Pettinain; and on the north by West Calder. There are no mountains, or even hills which deserve the name, though there are two ranges of high ground which run through the parish, but which, even at their highest point, do not exceed 1200 feet above the level of the sea. There

OS1/21/12/1 I amended the last line of the description to change 12 feet to 1200 feet above sea level. This is flattish but elevated countryside or it was a few months ago. Ian Muirhead
OS1/21/12/2 [page] 2 There are several mineral Springs in different parts of the parish, but I am not aware that any of them have been analyzed, or have attracted particular notice._ The only Loch worthy of notice is what is called the White Loch, immediately west of the village of Carnwath. It covers about 30 acres, is of considerable depth in some places, and finely wooded on the South and West sides. It is more than a mile in circumference. The village of Carnwath is much changed for the better within the last 20 years. Formerly its streets were encumbered with dunghills and peatstacks, which are now all swept away; and even the Old houses now present an appearance of comfort and cleanliness. Many of the new houses are handsome. There are five fairs in this village in the year, and a weekly market. The parish church is most inconveniently situated for the great body of the parishioners, being placed at the South West end of the parish. There are, indeed, only two families immediately to the West, and not above 10 or 12 on the south of the Church. The church was built in 1798, and is neither elegant or commodious, Being set down close beside the Aisle of the old one, which, though built in 1424, still retains a handsome Gothic structure. It is seated for 400 people, and is, of course, too small for our population, and were it not for the accommodation afforded by dissenters, many of the parishioners would have no opportunity of receiving religious instruction. The church was last year very much improved both internally and externally. The manse was built in 1817, and is, upon the whole, substantial and convenient. The glebe consists of 10 acres, lying immediately round the manse; it is worth 2 pounds per acre. The amount of Stipend is 16 chalders, 8 of meal, and 8 of barley, and 10£ for communion elements. There are at present 8 schools in the parish; seven besides the parochial school, which like the church, is most inconveniently situated for the general population of the parish. The parochial teacher has the maximum salary, and is otherwise well provided with an excellent school and dwelling house; but the others have no salary, and in some cases have even to provide a schoolhouse for themselves. Statistical Account for 1841 The parish contains 30400 Statute Acres. There are no detached portions of the parish of Carnwath, nor are there any detached portions of any other parish situated within it.

OS1/21/12/4 [page] 4 Parish of Carnwath [Notes spanning first and second columns] On referring the name Kircurrin Hill to the Authorities quoted; they state that Hendreys Course is applied to the portion of the hill in Edinburghshire, and that the same name is indifferently applied with Kircurrin Hill to the portion in Lanarkshire: therefore Hendreys Course is adopted to agree with the plans of Edinburghshire

In 1790-91 an extensive forge for the manufacture" of square iron bars" was erected but had not been at work above a year when unhappily a misunderstanding arose among the partners. During the dispute the forge had been stopt and only one furnace was kept going, but after the sale in 1798 the forge was again put to work, with an addition of two hammars and the two furnaces again

[Reverend] James Walker John Wilson Esq. M. D. [Doctor of Medicine] Mr Walter Watson Statistical Account of Lanarkshire Johnston's County Map dated 1816 Forrest's County Map 026.02 This Castle was formerly the residence of the ancient family of Sommerville one of the most opulent and powerful families in this part of the country about the middle of the twelfth Century. Hither James the sixth seems frequently to have repaired perhaps to enjoy his favourite sport of hunting,and here he seems also to have sometime spent a considerable portion of his time as some of the charters granted by him are dated at Couthalley.The Castle of Couthalley according to the Sommerville papers was burned down in 1320 and there is no record so far as I have been able to ascertain, where or by whom it was rebuilt. It was burned no doubt during some of the periods of the English which were so frequent at the time, and led to the building of what is called in the afore mentioned papers, " the double tour in Carnwath Towne" . of this "double tour" not a vestige remains though the situation of it is marked out by certain lands being still called Castle Sommerville

It is situated on the property of John Wilson Esq. Westsidewood bur Sir N. McDonald Lockhart Bart. [Baronet] is the hereditary keeper of it. ( Statistical Account) The existing remains consist of what appears to have been an oblong tower or "Keep" the walls of which are of great thickness and about 3 feet above the surface of the ground, the other portions of the Castle can still be traced by mounds of earth, which indicate the site of the old walls.

It is a Gothic structure covered with freestone flags, and the north window especially appears to have been a beautiful piece of workmanship. It has successively been the burying place of the Sommerville family, of the Dalziels, Earls of Carnwath, and now of a branch of the Lockhart family. The church to which no doubt it was attached and of which it formed a part, was founded in 1386 and endowed by the existing Lord Sommerville in 1424 with some lands which one of his successors in vain endeavoured to resume. It was funded for a priest and with

OS1/21/12/78 [page] 78 Ph. [Parish] of Carnwath St Mary's Church (Ruins of) (Continued) 026.07 prebendaries . Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account] This church was dedicated to Mary and although it shared to some extent the fate of the most of the religious houses at the period of the Reformation it continued to be used as a place of worship till the year 1799 when it became entirely disused- the present church having been erected at that time. The site of the wall of the church can still be distinctly traced it appears to have been 100feet within the walls in length and 20 feet in breadth which must have rendered it very inconvenient as a place of worship.

OS1/21/12/81 MOAT [Carnwath] Moat Moat Moat Moat Moat Rev.[Reverend] Alexander McLean Rev. [Reverend] James Walker Mr Walter Watson Johnston's County Map dated 1816 Forrest's County Map 026.07 The moat situated at the west end of Carnwath village is evidently artificial but at what date it was erected cannot be ascertained. It is of a form somewhat elliptical, the diameter from east to west being longer than from north to south. It is about 27 feet in height. there is a hollow on the top where it is said there was an entrance to a side stair that reached to the bottom. This has suggested the idea that the moat was intended as a burying-place. It has evidently been a place of strength as it was surrounded by a deep ditch and mound which can still be faintly traced. No information either historical or traditional can be obtained as to its having been a seat of justice in ancient times.
