HISTORY



The building had been gifted by the Hamilton Family of the nearby Carnell Estate for use as a school. The property and outbuildings had been part of the former estate.

Crossroads School dates back to the 1870’s when the first records of the buildings used as a school are found. The buildings history dates prior to this as possibly a black smiths shop or attached to a working farm steading and part of the main estate.

The first school log book appeared late in 1872. The roll in those formative years had only 25 names attached. In the early 1900’s there were 92 children enrolled from the surrounding parishes of Riccarton, Craigie, Mauchline and Galston.

For many years the Headmaster lived above the schoolroom and, as the school expanded, this room was utilised for school meals – the dinner room - and the red sandstone building beside the school became the School-Master’s house.

Following reforms in 1925 the advanced classes were moved to Hurlford. During the First World War and immediately after the advanced or older pupils had walked into Hurlford Village school for lessons in laundry and woodwork, Sometimes they were conveyed in a horse drawn carriage. In later years they were then taken home by motor vehicle.

From Crossroads School children would then go on to Kilmarnock Academy, James Hamilton High or Hurlford Secondary.

The property was still operating as a school in 1964 it was described in the Kilmarnock Standard as `an old school with fresh ideas` The new school buildings opened shortly after. The school closed late in 2010.

In more recent years the house has been adapted to provide a unique and bespoke quality residence – thoroughly steeped in its own history
