Lylestone history
Lylestone Farm stands on the minor road to Auchenmade and Drumbuie that branches off from the B778 and runs past the old school. The name does not indicate a stone, but refers to the farm settlement or ‘ton’, ‘toun’ or town of Lyle.
Lylestone Row and school
In the 19th century the row contained circa nine dwellings with several buildings on the opposite side of the road . These dwellings were home to railway workers and quarrymen from the nearby extensive freestone and limestone quarries . At least three smithies once stood in the quarries near to the row .
Cartographic evidence
Lylestone Cottage sits on the B778 next to old limestone quarries which are on both sides of the road . In 1747 the settlement of Lylestown is indicated on Roy’s map with Monk Redden (sic) nearby . In 1832 the course of the present day B778 did not exist and the road stopped at Monkreddan House .
