Hunter notes a cist from "Woodside, Ayrshire" (Woodside: NS 294 439) when listing "Cists with multi-slab sides and other irregularities" (comparable with the Bronze Age cists described on NS88SW 13).
(This need not necessarily be the 'Woodside" referred to as the Ordnance Survey Name Books (ONB) list some ten farms of this name in Ayrshire, though this is the only one to have several Bronze Age finds and burials recorded in the same area - e.g. at Stevenston Sands - NS 2841).
