"On top of Knockmade, a hill on the Kame, in the Ph. [Parish] of Lochwinnoch are the remains of a hill fort. The round dyke formed an enclosure occupying the South end of the hill. " Paisley Magazine 1828 page 524.
Mr. Orr, on whose farm the hill is, drew my attention to two circles, one inside the other, on the summit of this hill, which were represented by stones occuring at irregular distances, and by slight hollows in the surface. He told me a hill fort is supposed to have been here, but at what period he could not inform me. In his young days the circles were much better defined, and more observable than at present. The two extracts above are the only written records of
it I could find. I think, judging from the appearances of the ground, that the fact of a fort having been here is wholly conjectural _ The site certainly favors the supposition J.B. Capt R.E. [Captain Royal Engineers] |

The battle of Muirdykes, fought on a farm of the same name in the eastern part of the ph [parish] June 18 1685. The Dke [Duke] of Argyle collected in Holland an army of 1500 refugees from Scotland. with whom he landed at Kintyre & proceeded towards Glasgow. When he reached Kilpatrick his followers began to desert him. With a few of them he crossed the Clyde & came to Inchinnan, where he was taken prisoner, carried to Edinburgh & executed. A remnant of his followers, under the command of Sir John Cochran, came to Muirdykes, where they were attacked by the forces of King James VII, whom they defeated, and remained on the field behind a natural entrenchment till it was dark. Afraid of the enemy being reinforced, they retired during the night, and proceeded Southwards in the parish of Beith. The King's forces made a similar retreat under the shade of night, and so the field was found next morning deserted of both parties" N. S. Acct. [New Statistical Account] The site is marked on trace. The present farmer never found anything in ploughing, but the one before him found several bullets. |

"There seems to have been a chapel endowed by the"family of Sempill before the erection of the Collegiate church, the lands of which merged in that foundation, and a place still called Chapleton, near their park & castle, probably marks its site" Origines Parochiales Scotiae Vol 1 : page 93 _
The farm steading of Chapleton alluded to in the quotation is now away, though the name is preserved in the burn which flows near the supposed site of chapel. Mr. Love infroms me that the exact Site cannot be pointed out. The tree north of the holy well marks the site of the steading near which the chapel is supposed to have stood; and around the spot which I have marked (+) [site of monument symbol] the present farmer, in course of drainage, removed many large stones & slates. The site I have shewn is, as near as can be asceratined from the information I could get, the probable site of the Chapel. |

"The bridge of Bridgend across the Calder, a little to the N. [North] West of the village, is worthy of notice, chiefly on account of its antiquity.

The adjacent property is Called Bridgend, probably from this bridge etc The arch of the bridge is very fine, & the mason work far more elegant than is now employed about bridges. Originally it was very narrow, & barely allowed one cart to pass at once, but was repaired & widened in 1814. We have nothing but conjecture respecting the origin of this bridge" N. S. Acct.

I have marked the site of the old kirk. A part of the original wall has been preserved, & repaired, and a clock put on it. The remaining part of the site is scarcely perceptible to a stranger, but I had a very old plan, lent me by the gravedigger, which served as a guide.
Mr. Love thinks this Church was dedicated to St. Winnoch The Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Smith, Mr. Craig, & the Revd.

Its banks which are overhung with wood both natural & planted, are exceedingly picturesque. These beauties were first pointed out by Alexander Wilson, the ornithologist of America, who resided in this parish some years before his emigration. In his muses on Calder Banks he thus lamented the neglect to which, till his time, this scenery had been doomed." Ramsay's Views of Renfrew
This place is best known by the name Calder Bank (see the Bleachfield to which it gave a name) It is celebrated for its beautiful & romantic scenery wh. [which] attracts many visitors. The banks, covered with wood, are very steep, & at some places appear to be nearly perpendicular. |

In 1735, Col. [Colonel] McDowall demolished the Castle of Sempill, and built the present mansion house, which consists of three stories with wings. It is a neat edifice but not equal to the situation it occupies. The plantations and pleasure grounds have been laid out with the greatest skill. They contain upwards of 900 acres, subdivided into a great number of enclosures, are pervaded by about 12 miles of roads & walks, and are protected on the north by a strong wall, from three to four miles long. The eminences are covered with woods, and many trees adorn the lawns, sometimes in rows, & sometimes solitary The gardens on the rising ground, a little on the N [North] East of the house, were lately formed on an excellent plan, and at great expense. They contain a variety of trees, shrubs, and flowers foreign & indigenous, and add much to the beauty of the landscape"

The grass on the lawns is allowed to grow and feeds many sheep. The factor agreed with me that they could not be termed ornamental ground. |

13 Octbr [October] 1856
Sir,
In the N. Stat Acct. [New Statistical Account] an old
Castle is mentioned as having
stood on the site of the present
mansion house of Castle
Semple. "The Castle of Castle
Tower ( a misprint. Mr. Love
says it ought to have been
Castleton ) "gave place to the
"present mansion house of
"Castle-Semple. Its foun-
"dations were this year laid
"bare in forming some drains
"about the latter house."
It is also noticed thus in
Ramsay's Views of Ren-
frewshire. "When they were - Not noticed by Chalmers - J.C.G
"raised to the peerage, they
"built a larger structure,
"called Castleton, on the
"Castle of Sempill, which
"occupied the site of the
"present mansion house"
I have spoken to Mr. Harvey,
the present proprietor, respecting
the foundations of the original
building & if they could be
pointed out. He was quite

So in Origines Parochiales

" The present house of Castle

of a large court, part
of which seemed to be

ignorant respecting them, &
was not even aware that a

give me no information whatever.
All therefore that I could glean
respecting it is given in the transcribed
quotations. I have written it on
trace Site of
Castleton
G.T.
"Its foundatns [foundations] were this year laid bare in
forming some drains about the latter
house" would imply that the present
house is not built exactly on the
foundations of the Old Castle, &
perhaps it might be preferable
to abolish the name altogether,
when the course of the foundations
cannot be traced.

Elliston Castle is a small square building It was the residence of the Sempill family before 1500, and stands on the opposite side of the loch from the present mansion house. It must have been built before the use of gunpowder, but when repairs were made in later times, gun. ports were formed in its walls. Its length is 42 feet over the walls, its breadth 33 ft. [feet], and its height from 20 to 30 feet, being higher in some places than others. The end walls are from 8 to 9 ft. [feet] thick, and the side walls about 6½ ft. [feet] In the east & west walls there is an opening opposite to another, and arched over the top, wh. [which] might have been doors, but which from this elevation, in the walls, appear like large windows" N. S. acct. [New Statistical Account]
The north & south walls appear to be from 20 to 30 feet high, but in a very ruinous & tottering Condition. The other walls, including those which are supposed (by Mr. Love & others) to have enclosed the court yard, are scarcely any height above the ground, and are scarcely visible among the heaps of rubbish, stones, etc which as it were prop them up & preserve them from being swept away altogether. |

He could give me no dimensions, nor were there any appearances on the ground from which the extent of the former building might be conjectured. There is a slight eminence in the plantation out of which he says the foundations were dug. Close to this eminence, but in the field south of it, are two small grassy mounds evidently formed of the debris, as large hewn stones protrude in many places from their surface.

Mrs John Craig has a very ancient monument in her kail-yard, a stone on which is cut out a man riding on an ass: It is a catholic Croce [crux], and it is a relict of the 12th or 13th Century. This man is called The Dumb Proctor" M.S.S. [Manuscript] of Dr. [Doctor] A Crawfurd, referred to in the N. Stat Acct. [New Statistical Account]
Mr. Love, writer, who has devoted a greal of time to attain a knowledge of the antiquities of this parish, & who has many old manuscripts respecting it, informs me that the Dumb Proctor is Conjectured to have been placed on the Crook Hill, during the days of Catholicism, for the people to address their prayers to it. The figures are supposed to represent our Saviour riding to Jeruselem. There were at one time, many saxon letters engraven on it which are now obliterated. The figures are defaced a good deal, but are very discernable. The monument is mounted on a small pedestal & the whole fixed to the wall as quoted above. It is not noticed in the N: Stat: Acc: [New Statistical Account] but I believe reference is made to it in some of the older histories of the Ph [Parish] See Semp[le] |

"During these periolous times, (from 1488 to 1586) J.K. Ld. [Lord] Sempill built the peel on a small islet in Castle-Semple loch. Being surrounded on all sides by water and well defended, it must have been a very safe & impregnable retreat. The foundation and a part of the lapidated walls still remain surrounded be a few trees and shrubs. In consequence of the extent to which the loch has been drained, the peel now stands upon its Southern margin, in the line of a high embankment, by which the land beyond it is kept comparatively dry during the summer, but which alters and hurts the appearance of this ancient place" N. Stat : Acct. [New Statistical Account]

"Barr Loch is so well drained, that it has the appearance of a loch only during a heavy fall of rain in winter. In summer it waves with the most luxuriant crop of oats and hay" New Stat Acct. [New Statistical Account]
For the purpose of draining this loch, about the year 1800, Mr. McDowall had an embankent made around it. James Adam, Esq W.S, [Writer to the Signet] in 1813, got the Barr Loch into his possession. He improved and strengthened the embankment, and at great expense so effectually drained the loch, that only during the winter months it is covered with water. It is now in possession of Col: [Colonel] McDowall. See Account of the drainage of Barr Loch & adjoining land by James Adam Esq: in the Highland Society's agricultural journal No.6. for further information.
The embankent is shown on traces, and all the land which it encloses at one time formed the Barr Loch __ |

REMAINS OF ENTRENCHMENT |
Remains of Entrenchment |
N. Stat Acct [New Statistical Account]
Mr. Love: Writer
Mr. Craig Surveyor |
015.03 |
There are visible the remains of a Camp or fort on the farm of Castlewaws, in the Eastern part of the Ph. [Parish]. The entrenched hill is a superficies of about 80 falls in length, and about 25 in breadth. It consists of a mass of trap rock, precipitous on both sides; it is highest on the East side, wh. [which] is 40ft. [feet] high. The precipice had no need of a wall for defence, but some parts of the eminence are sloping in the ascent, and are defended by a rampart of turf stones, something like a feal dike. The North & South sides are somewhat departing from the form of a precipice, and therefore are fortified. *On the South end are still the remains of an entrenchment, which is 5ft. [feet] high. Within the entrenchment is a **circular wall or intervallum of the same rude materials, about 60ft. [feet] in diameter towards the West. This fort has been supposed to be the remains of a Camp formed by Sir William Wallace in his wars with the English; but more probably it was one of the hill forts formed by the Ancient Britons, & of wh' [which] there are many remains in the Country." N. Stat. Acct. [New Statistical Account]
I have inserted the entrenchment mentioned as 5ft. [feet] high, and given section where necessary. The farmer at South Castlewalls dont remember having seen any other feal dike or entrenchment than that on the Southside. parts of it have been removed, but on trace I have shewn by a red dotted line the [course] (as well as I could judge) of the complete embankment before decay. Mr Pollocks father in removing a part of the entrenchment found a small ivory ring wh. [which] he broke in the digging. Dr. [Doctor] Crawford, Mr Love informs me, supposed it to have been used in marriage ceremonies. Around the North margin of the hill are the the indistinct traces of a feal dike, which I have shewn also by a red dotted line. At one place it more distinct and observant, & this portion I have shewn in the usual way.
I could find no traces of the circular wall mentioned as 60 ft. [feet] in diameter, nor could I get any information respecting it. |

"Auchinbathie Tower stands on the side of the road leading to Stewarton, Dunlop etc. It is surrounded by some old trees, and Cultivated land, - memorials of the wealthy inhabitants by whom it must have been occupied. We have said it was no doubt the mansion house of the progenitors of Sir William Wallace. It is not so large as either of the Castles already mentioned, though less dilapidated than the second. It is 29 ft. [feet] long, from 10 to 12 broad, but it is probable that only a portion of the side walls remain, and its greatest height is about 17 ft. [feet] There is a small building embosomed within these ancient walls, and therefore instead of being the mansion house of a distinguished family, they are now an outhouse for Cattle" _ N. Stat: Acct [New Statistical Account]
"This family "(Wallaces of Ellerslie )" was in possession of this property in 1398. They had a castle or Tower there" Fowlers Paisley directory.
The walls around are continuous, though not in many places more than 4 or 5 ft. [feet] high. At the side next the farm house a small portion of the wall has been removed as an inlet for pigs which a short time since were reared inside the old walls The outhouse mentioned in the N.
