Located in The Sandgate, this is one of the oldest buildings in Ayr and is believed to date from the early 17th century. The house was restored by the Scottish Historic Buildings Trust in 1991 and the ground floor is now occupied by the tourist information office. John Loudon McAdam, the famous road-maker, was born here in 1756. (Source: "Ayrshire: Discovering A County", by Dane Love).
