Cronberry

[2] Diane and Holly Fallon were murdered at Cronberry in 2009 by a former soldier, Thomas Smith, who was sentenced to serve a minimum of 32 years behind bars.

[7] Mortonmuir Park lay across the road from Store Row, famous for being the ground where Cronberry Eglinton football team played.

[8] The pathways in front of the houses were at that time all unpaved, and the winter condition resembled a quagmire.

[8] The village was owned by William Baird & Co.[9] The older miners' rows were demolished and the occupants rehoused in Lugar.

The turf structure was sub-rectangular and contained a hearth surrounded by some paving with pottery dating to no later than the 16th century.

Bill Shankly OBE once played at right half for the Cronberry Eglinton youth football club.

A typical Ayrshire Direction stone survives, having a pyramidal top, square on plan, but set as a diamond.
