The Memorial is to a local worthy, a doctor who did great things as only Victorian era doctors could. Maybe that is why there are so many monuments to them scattered across the country.

The Covenanters' Monument at Bothwell Bridge
Funded by public subscription, this monument was erected in 1903 in honour of the Covenanters who fought and fell in the Battle of Bothwell Bridge on 22 June 1679 in defence of civil and religious liberty. It was unveiled before a crowd of more than 25,000 people. The event was more of a skirmish than a battle, fought on the original bridge which the Covenanters were holding from the south side. The superior forces of the Government proved to be too strong for them.
Ayrshire sent around 1,000 men to fight at Bothwell Brig. The number of Carrick men who died there or who were imprisoned afterwards is not known. Six Maybole men were among the Covenanting prisoners who were sent to America as slaves. They drowned when their ship sank near the Orkney Islands. Image shows where the Maybole men gathered before marching to Bothwell Brig.
