Its extent is very considerable." _ "The form of the parish is irregular, reaching about 9 miles in length from East to west, and may be , on an average, 3 miles in breadth."_"In the lower parts of the parish, which is at the east end, the Soil is various, and all kinds of grains Common to Scotland, are cultivated to advantage, But to the west, the country gradually rises, till it comes to a pretty high elevation. It is mostly of a light mould, and though much of it be tilled, yet it appears better calculated for pasture. _ The Fereneze and Lochlibo-side hills, making one ridge, rreaching from north-west to South-west, for Several miles, are covered with green, and containing a number of arable farms; and, as the farm houses appear in a line along the steep ascent, they afford a beautiful prospect to the traveller, on the farther parts of the lands of Lochlibo, the Soil is more barren, the Surface covered with bent and heath, and partly with deep moss."

OS1/26/18/99 SITE OF STANDING STONE Neils Stone Neils Stone Neils Stone Doctor Young Mr Thomas Anderson Mr Walter Stewart 016.06 A Standing Stone once occupied the position shown on trace at Corseton Brae and was Known by the name Supplied, and to this day it is the popular traditional opinion that the name of the Village of Neilston was derived from a person of the name of Neil having been Slain or buried here - See [Extract] which disposes of this traditioning fable. J.b Capt. R.E. [Captain Royal Engineers]
OS1/26/18/99 [Page] 99 County of Renfrew Parish of Neilston "Tradition has handed down various accounts of the Origin of the name. By one of these, it is derived from one of Haco's Generals, called Neill, who, with his routed division, flying from the battle of Largs, was overtaken in a field near Kirkton, by the Scotch Army, and Slain. A Tumulus, According to the fashion of the times, was raised over his grave, and a stone Set up to mark the spot, which was called Neilstone: and hence the origin of the name. Another account is, that, in the reign of Malcolm III., Donald, Lord of the Isles, having raised an insurrection against his Sovereign, was met by Malcolm, and, after a Severe Conflict, was routed at a place called Hairlaw, on the borders, or as Some Say, in the parish; that Neil, one of the clansmen of Donald, fled with a remnant of his islanders from the plain to the hills, whither he was pursued and Slain, and a Stone Set up near the Village to mark the spot where he fell, was called Neilstone, which gave the name to the Surrounding district. But these accounts are pure fiction. We find the name of Neilstoun given in the district, 103 before the battle of the Largs, and 251 years before the days of Malcolm III. The battle of the Largs was faught in 1260; and the battle of Hairlaw in 1411: but in the chartulary of the Abbey of 'Paisley', we find, that in the year 1160, Robert de Croc of Crocstoun, assigns over the patronages of "Neilstoun" to the monks of the Abbey of "Paisley" on consideration that mass be regularly said there, "pro salute animae suae," The orthography of the name in this chartulary, leads to the Conclusion that Neilston took its origin from a person called "Neil," its first inhabitant; and the termination "tun" - now pronounced town - denoting the dwelling of the proprietor. - natuarally enough gave to his place the name "Neil'Stone," or " Neilstown" -the Town of Neill.
