MC Davis, The Castle and Mansions of Ayrshire, 1991,p314, 135. Notes This pair of distinctive lodges to Lainshaw House, which now flanks David Dale Avenue. They are an important part of the streets cape and history of Stewarton. Originally single storey, the lodges formed part of the entrance gateway to Lainshaw House and were joined by walls and gatepiers with a carriage gate and two pedestrian gates. These were demolished in the 1950s when the road was widened to make way for the new housing estate, which now occupies the land between the lodges and Lainshaw House itself. A remnant of the war remains at No 2 David Dale Avenue. A whale jaw bone sat over the central gate. The windows to the East were formerly Ogee arched. It is likely that the lodges were raised to two storey around 1920 by the architect James Cairns, of Glasgow. The lodges were probably built after William Cunningham, a tobacco merchant from Kilmarnock, brought Lainshaw Estate in 1778. On acquiring the estate he spent a great deal of money extending the grounds and likely the lodges date from this period. List description revised as part of Stewarton Burgh resurvey, 2009. 15
