Roy’s Military Map of 1747-55 indicates that 'Old Crosshill', a medieval castle (NS44NW 6), stood on the W side of the Clerkland Burn, while 'Crosshill', a post-medieval house and its successor (NS44NW 10), stood on the E.
It is likely that the image from 1789 of ‘Corshill House’ published by Grose shows the eastern and more modern of these two houses (contra OS (EGC) 1962), the site of which is now beneath a housing estate.
