The Loudoun Spoot
Originally placed here in the early 1700s as a watering point for cattle drovers and their animals. Water comes by underground pipe from a well some distance to the north - now the only working artesian well in Ayrshire. Restoration of The Spoot was begun in 1997, by which time its flow had all but ceased. It was re-dedicated in an opening ceremony on 24th June 2000, and a time capsule was buried in a void beneath it. Although a notice on the wall above the spoot declares the water as unfit for drinking, it is noted by local people for making an excellent pot of tea, or for adding to a wee dram.
