Kilmaurs Castle was located on the lands of Jocksthorn Farm, near Kilmaurs in East Ayrshire, Scotland. It is described by Timothy Pont in the early 17th century as "Ye castell is ane ancient ftronge building belonging to ye Earls of Glencairne environed with a fair park called Carmell wod from ye vatter of Carmell yat runs by it." Dobie goes on to state that "The old baronial manor place is supposed to have been situated about a mile south-east of Kilmaurs, where some ruins can still be pointed out on the farm of Jakisthorn or Jock's-thorn, probably the original Villam de Cuninghame - the first possession of the family." The castle is not to be confused with the later Cunninghame family possession known as Kilmaurs Place which Dobie calls "..comparatively modern" in 1876.

  • Kilmaurs Castle ist eine abgegangene Niederungsburg auf dem Gelände der Jocksthorn Farm bei Kilmaurs in der schottischen Verwaltungseinheit East Ayrshire. Timothy Pont schrieb über sie Anfang des 17. Jahrhunderts: „Das Kastell ist ein altes, starkes Gebäude, dass des Earls of Glencairn gehört, umgeben von einem schönen Park namens Carmel Wood, an dem Carmel Water vorbeifließt.“ „(...) Das alte Herrenhaus des Barons soll etwa eine halbe Meile südöstlich von Kilmaurs gelegen haben, wo man noch einige Ruinen auf dem Bauernhof Jock’s-thorn erkennen kann, vermutlich die ursprüngliche Villam de Cuninghame – die erste Besitzung der Familie.“ Die Burg darf man nicht mit der späteren Besitzung der Familie ‚Cunninghame namens Kilmaurs Place verwechseln, die Dobie 1876 „im Vergleich dazu modern“ nennt.
