Cunninghame ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Coineagan)) is a former comital district of Scotland and also a district of the Strathclyde Region from 1975–1996. ==Historic Cunninghame== The historic district of Cunninghame was bordered by the districts of Renfrew and Clydesdale to the north and east respectively, by the district of Kyle to the south over the River Irvine and by the Firth of Clyde to the west. Cunninghame became one of the three districts or bailieries of Ayrshire, the shire or sheriffdom of Ayr. Cunninghame was in the north, along the River Irvine; Kyle was in the centre, along the River Ayr; and Carrick was in the south, along the River Doon. By the eighteenth century Ayrshire had become one of the counties of Scotland, with the three baileries being described as "districts" or "divisions" of the county, although they had no formal administrative existence. In the late nineteenth century the "territorial division" was described as comprising the civil parishes of Ardrossan, Beith, Dalry, Dreghorn, Fenwick, Irvine, North Ayrshire, Kilbirnie, West Kilbride, Kilmarnock, Kilmaurs, Kilwinning, Largs, Loudoun, Stevenston, Stewarton and part of Dunlop.〔(Frances Groome, ''Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland'', 1882-4, (Vision of Britain) )〕 The Cunninghame poor law combination was formed in the 1850s with a poorhouse at Irvine. it had a different area from the ancient district.〔(Cunninghame Combination, Ayrshire (www.workhouses.org.uk) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cunninghame」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
