DUNDONALD

Does anyone familiar with the area of Dundonald know where Darlyhall was.  My Watson/White ancestors lived there in the late 1700s.
Thanks

Looking at the LDS transcription of the 1881 UK Census, there is a couple of families living at  "Troon and Loans Road Darley" in Enumeration District # 3, Dundonald parish #590-1. The only other address on Troon and Loans Road in ED 3 is "Troon and Loans Road Auld Bennels" (six households).  Immediately after the Darley homes are households at "Ayr Road Muirhead". Most of the addresses in ED 3 are listed as "Ayr Road Loans", with several having named buildings.

Looking at Multimap.com's Ordnance Survey, Darley Burn, Murhead and Loans are east of Troon.

I'm guessing Darleyhall would be near Darley Burn. The modern Ordnance Survey map doesn't show it, but older OS maps might. It's possible that Auld Bennels is another name for Darleyhall.

Thanks for your reply.  Not sure as Darley Burn nearer troon.  The spelling in the OPR
was Darlyhall without the e.  Thanks for the interest

In those days Darley, Darly, Darlee, Darlie and possibly Darleigh would all be possible spellings for the same place.
