Towerlands, North Ayrshire : ウィキペディア英語版 | Towerlands, North Ayrshire
Towerlands or Tourlands was a small estate of of good quality land〔 in the parish of Irvine and the old barony of Kilmaurs, North Ayrshire, Scotland, situated near the more extensive property of Bourtreehill, the lands of which surrounded it on three sides.〔Paterson, p. 280〕 The name suggests that a medieval stone or wood 'tower' structure of some sort existed, but no record of this appears to exist. ==History== The spelling 'Towerlands' is used throughout for consistency. Roy's map of 1747 clearly marks the lands of Towerlands,〔(Roy's Map of Ayrshire )〕 and John Thomson's map of 1832 marks 'Tourlands' next to the Bourtreehill estate.〔(Thomson's Map of 1832. )〕 Towerlands can be confused with the Tour estate in Kilmaurs, East Ayrshire.
