The house has been extended over the years to what can be seen today.
Little is known about the Allason's accept they were high ranked in the military and involved in politics.
In the mid 1800s, the Estate passed from the Allason family to Captain Robert Campbell of Auchmannoch in the parish of Sorn.
The estate was broken up around 1949 with the mansion being bought by the County Council. The Council opened Glaisnock in 1952 as a junior secondary school. The school specializing in rural education, took in boarders as well as day pupils. Glaisnock was operated as a four year school from 1968 until its closure in June 1973.
The house was built around 1833, it was designed by James Ingram of Kilmarnock for a Mr James Allason however the house has been extended over the years, not much is known about Mr Allason except that he ranked highly in the military and had some involvement in politics.

The house was bought by a Chinese man in 2014 but he died suddenly from a brain tumour back in August 2015, the result of this was that the plans to renovate the building into a Chinese language and cultural centre were held up, all work stopped at the building back in 2015 and it has been left derelict ever since.

Flagstaff Quarry, and The Hoveringham II shipwreck (By Banjonic)

We parked at Penmon Priory and asked the guy in the toll shed if we can get access to the quarry. He gave us the padlock code for the gate so we didn’t have to climb over it. An easy walk across some fields.
There is a ship wreck called the Hoveringham II off the bay which we wanted to get closer to from the quarry.
