Kilmaurs Place, Category B listed house in Kilmaurs, Scotland.
The mansion features stone walls, incorporated ruins of Kilmaurs Tower, and provides views across the Carmel Water from its elevated position.
William Cunningham, the 9th Earl of Glencairn and Lord Chancellor of Scotland, initiated construction but financial difficulties prevented completion of the intended project.
The building represents the architectural evolution of Scottish mansions, incorporating elements from different periods within its main block and stair-wing structure.
The private residence stands near other historical landmarks of East Ayrshire, including Rowallan Castle Estate and the village's medieval parish church.
The Maak's Well near the house holds local significance, with records indicating it stopped flowing when previous owners restricted public access.
