Ladywell F.C.
Ladywell F.C. was a football club from Maybole, Ayrshire, active in the 1870s. History The club was formed in 1876, two years after the older senior club in the town, Maybole Carrick, and in the aftermath of the end of Maybole Thistle. The football club was formed out of a cricket club which played on Broomknowes and which may have been the factory side of John Gray & Co, whose "immense shoe factory" was called Ladywell. The first recorded match of the club took place in February 1876, against Girvan Ailsa, although ominously the match was not finished because of a dispute over an Ailsa goal. At the end of the season, Ladywell beat Carrick 2–1 in a friendly at Baltersan, the losers giving three hearty cheers to the victors. Ladywell's first competitive football came in the first Ayrshire Cup in 1877–78, beating Cumnock in the first round but losing at Beith in the second, the homesters considering the Ladywell to be "a little coarse, and their conduct throughout was ...

Lanemark F
New Cumnock is a town in East Ayrshire, Scotland. It expanded during the coal-mining era from the late 18th century, and mining remained its key industry until its pits were shut in the 1960s. The town is southeast of Cumnock, and east of Ayr. History Early history One of the first mentions of the village was when Patrick Dunbar of Comenagh signed the Ragman Roll of 1296. Blind Harry's poem ''The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Campioun Schir William Wallace'' placed William Wallace in and around the village in his heroic tales of the patriot, calling it Cumno. In 1296, William Wallace and his men were forced to turn back from New Cumnock because the road at Corsencon had been destroyed. ''"At Corssencon the gait was spilt that tide"'' The main route from Nithsdale to Ayrshire passed by Corsencon hill in the east of the parish where since 1205 a toll and customs point had stood. Wallace's detour took him to Avondale (Strathhaven) where he and his men defeated ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
