Lainshaw House, Category B listed mansion in Stewarton, Scotland.

Lainshaw House is a three-storey Classical mansion in Stewarton with six bays, Tudor-Gothic details, and cream sandstone walls. It features a Doric portico on its main elevation.

William Cunningham, a tobacco merchant, purchased the estate in 1779 and undertook substantial improvements. These works transformed the earlier medieval structure into a Classical mansion.

The building represents the architectural evolution from a 15th-century tower house to a 19th-century Classical mansion with Gothic influences.

The building was converted to residential flats following fire damage in 2008 while preserving its architectural features. Check locally for any public access opportunities or viewing options.

Archaeological studies reveal traces of a medieval tower house integrated within the building's current structure. This hidden layer shows how the site evolved across several centuries.
