Lands of Broomlands : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lands of Broomlands
The lands of Broomlands or Broumlands formed a small country estate about a mile to the east of Irvine, North Ayrshire, Scotland situated on the east bank of the Annick Water in the Parishes of Dreghorn and Irvine.〔Dobie, Page 107〕 ==History== The spelling 'Broomlands' and 'Montgomery' is used throughout for consistency. The name may derive from the common shrub Broom or Cytisus scoparius that is plentiful in the area to this day. Roy's map of 1747 clearly marks two properties as 'Broom Land' and 'Broom Lands' 〔(Roy's Map of Ayrshire )〕 and John Thomson's map of 1832 marks 'East, Nether and Over Broomlands.〔(Thomson's Map of 1832. )〕 Armstrong's map of 1775 records a 'Bloomly' to the north of the Annick and a 'Broomland' to the south, as well as 'Lockwards' to the west and 'Cherylands' to the east.〔(Armstrong, Andrew, 1700-1794.'A New Map of Ayrshire'. )〕
