This large unit was composed of Upper Kirkton (NS 1555), Mid Kirkton (NS 1555), Nether Kirkton (NS 1554), Penmachrie and Breakough (NS 1655). (Penmachrie was 2m in 1673 & 1675). In Bute Retours (60) of 1658 it also contains ‘Mose of Monymoir’. This is likely to be Minnemoer and Wee Minnemoer (NS 1656). |

RMS VI (315) of 1595 says of the 2½m Figgatoch that ½m lay within the lands of Nether Kirkton between ‘Portkar’ and ‘Garburgh’. ‘Portkar’ is likely to be Portachur Point (NS 1553) and Garburgh lies under some of the present Millport. It is possible that the ‘burgh’ element in ‘Garburgh’ represents Norse ‘borg’ or fort.
