Kirkton was a medieval village on Cumbrae and existed for many centuries before Millport was built. The plaque reads "Remains of the ancient jougs by which prisoners were manacled to the rocks. They date back to the 15th century". North Ayrshire Heritage Trails https://www.naheritagetrails.co.uk/heritagetrails_cumbrae_kirkton.php
