context_section_description: Joan Blaeu'a map based on that of Timothy Pont circa 1560 to 1614 shows an 'O. Drumclogs' and a 'N. Drumklog'. Adair's 1685 map shows Drumclog close to a track from Loudoun Hill to Renfrew. Hill of Drumclogg amd Laigh Crumclogg are shown together some un-named buildings and with Snaid recorded on the predecessor to the A71, the Ayr to Edinburgh by Haamilton and Kirk of Shotts Road. Ross's 1773 map shows Drumclog to the north of the Ayr to Edinburgh road with the inaccurate note 'Clevers fought a battle 1684'. In 1816 Forrest's map shows East, High and Laigh Drumclog together with Snabe (sic). Both coal and limeworks are shown. In 1822 lime and coal works are still shown. The 1858 OS map shows old limestone quarries and a number of old limekilns. The 1911 OS map shows the presence of a post office, the church and Drumclog railway station. In 1958 the OS map shows the railway to have been closed and lifted.
