Area Guide For Stevenston

Stevenston is a town and ward in North Ayrshire, Scotland. It is one of the 'Three Towns' alongside Ardrossan and Saltcoats. 

The town is named after Stephan Loccard or Lockhart, whose father got a grant of the land from Richard de Morville, Lord of Cunninghame and Constable of Scotland, around 1170. The town is initially said in a contract of c. 1240. 

The town turned into a coal mining centre with thirty-two mines recorded on the Ardeer Estate when it was sold to the Rev Patrick Warner in 1707. The pits were generally depleted before the end of the nineteenth century, the last, Ardeer East, shutting in 1926. 

Stevenston Stone was an excellent white sandstone, marble-like, quarried from around 1800 and mainstream in spots, for example, Dublinand Belfast. The site was permitted to surge in 1920, it was from 150 to 200 feet profound, associated with old mine workings which gave an enduring and generous water flow[18] which must be pumped out consistently to forestall flooding. Balance and other material from the old Caledonian Railway dike adjacent was utilized to infill a great part of the old quarry.
