A Kilmaurs History
Kilmaurs has long-standing historical roots, with settlements in the area dating back to the Middle Ages. The village became an important centre for agriculture, particularly cattle farming, which contributed to its early growth. In the medieval period, the Barony of Kilmaurs was under the control of the influential Cunningham family, whose name is still prominent in Ayrshire history. The family played a significant role in local and national affairs, and Kilmaurs Castle (also known as Jocksthorn Castle) was a focal point for the region’s nobility.
Modern Kilmaurs
Today, Kilmaurs is a quiet, largely residential village with a mix of modern and historical elements. It has good transport links, including a railway station with services to Kilmarnock, Glasgow, and surrounding areas, making it a commuter base for those working in larger towns and cities. Local amenities include shops, schools, and community facilities, helping sustain a strong local community spirit.
Though its weaving and bonnet-making industries are no longer present, Kilmaurs retains much of its charm, with cobbled streets, historical buildings, and a rural backdrop. The village has evolved over the years but continues to celebrate its historical roots, holding events like community fairs and local history projects.
