The Abbey of Saint Mary of Crossraguel is a ruin of a former abbey near the town of Maybole, South Ayrshire, Scotland. Although it is a ruin, visitors can still see the original monks’ church, their cloister and their dovecot.

Founded in 1244 by Donnchadh, Earl of Carrick, following an earlier donation of 1225, to the monks of Paisley Abbey for that purpose. They reputedly built nothing more than a small chapel and kept the balance for themselves. The Earl took the matter to the Bishop of Glasgow for arbitration and, winning his case, forced the monks to build a proper abbey.

Dalquharran Castle was designed by Robert Adam, the architect responsible for the building of nearby Culzean Castle. Despite enormous investment in the preservation of the 18th century Culzean Castle by the National Trust of Scotland, its contemporary Dalquharran has for various reasons fallen into disrepair and ruin in recent years.

Similarly to Culzean Castle, Dalquharran was designed as a family mansion incorporating castle-style features. It was commissioned by Thomas Kennedy in 1785 as a new ancestral seat for his descendants, after Old Dalquharran Castle (ruins of which stand on the same land approximately 300m away) became uninhabitable. The old castle is now a listed monument.

Overlooking the Water of Girvan, sadly the new castle is also now in a ruinous state after Kennedy’s heirs sold the property in the 1930s. Eventually, Dalquharran became too costly for subsequent owners to maintain and was abandoned, with the roof strategically removed in the late 1960s as a means of avoiding paying tax. Although by early 2017, the interior of the castle were in total ruin and entry into the building was prohibited for safety reasons, Dalquharran stands as an evocative and romantic echo of its cousin Culzean, located a mere 8 miles away.

St. John the Baptist Church in Kingston Bagpuize has a history spanning over 700 years, with the current building erected in 1799-1800 on the site of earlier churches.

The first church on the site was built shortly after the Norman Conquest, likely between 1076 and 1099, by Ralf de Bachepuise and Adelelm. The original church served the community for nearly 700 years before being replaced.

The present church was built in the late 18th century and was completed in 1800.

The church is a Grade II listed building, recognizing its historical and architectural significance.
