Church History

Ruins of the 13th Century Church at Monkton, founded by the monks of Paisley Abbey and used for worship until the 19th Century.

Architecturally, the most important structure in the village are the ruins of St. Cuthbert's Church, in Main Street, close to Prestwick Airport. Built several centuries ago as a single oblong chamber, it has been considerably changed over time, before being re-roofed in 1837. The Church and graveyard, because of their historical importance, are protected buildings. Also protected are the neighbouring Manse to the Parish Church, and its stables. The manse was constructed in 1822 and is a two storey building with a central porch.
