Graham ( ) is a masculine given name in the English language.
 According to some sources, it comes from an Old English word meaning "grey home".
 According to other sources, it comes from the surname "Graham", which in turn is an Anglo-French form of the name of the town of Grantham, in Lincolnshire, England.
 The settlement is recorded in the 11th century "Domesday Book" variously as "Grantham", "Grandham", "Granham" and "Graham".
 This place name is thought to be derived from the Old English elements "grand", possibly meaning "gravel", and "ham", meaning "hamlet" the English word given to small settlements of smaller size than villages.
 In the 12th century the surname was taken from England to Scotland by Sir William de Graham, who founded Clan Graham.
 Variant spellings of the forename are "Grahame" and "Graeme".
 The forename "Graham" is considered to be an English and Scottish given name.
 Its origin as a surname has led to its occasional use as a female given name, as for example in the case of Graham Cockburn, a daughter of Henry Cockburn, Lord Cockburn.
The lands of Elliston, previously Elliotston or Eliotstoun or Elliestoun in the Parish of Lochwinnoch were part of the holdings of the Barony of Elliston, later a part of the Castle Semple barony and estates.

 The castle was abandoned circa 1550 when John Sempill, 1st Lord Sempill moved to a new castle at Castleton which he renamed Castle Semple (NS 377602).

Eynsford Castle is a ruined medieval fortification in Eynsford, Kent.
 Built on the site of an earlier Anglo-Saxon stone "burh", the castle was constructed by William de Enysford, probably between 1085 and 1087, to protect the lands of Lanfranc, the Archbishop of Canterbury, from Odo, the Bishop of Bayeux.
 It comprised an inner and an outer bailey, the former protected by a stone curtain wall.
 In 1130 the defences were improved, and a large stone hall built in the inner bailey.
 The de Enysford family held the castle until their male line died out in 1261, when it was divided equally between the Heringaud and de Criol families.
 A royal judge, William Inge, purchased half of the castle in 1307, and arguments ensued between him and his co-owner, Nicholas de Criol, who ransacked Eynsford in 1312.
 The castle was never reoccupied and fell into ruins, and in the 18th century it was used to hold hunting kennels and stables.
 The ruins began to be restored after 1897, work intensifying after 1948 when the Ministry of Works took over the running of the castle.
 In the 21st century, Eynsford Castle is managed by English Heritage and is open to visitors.
