| Description |
English: Eaglesham Bi-centenary Plaque 'This plaque was erected by Renfrew County Council and Eaglesham Restoration Joint Committee in 1969 in acknowledgement of the work of Sheriff J.B.M. Young and Mr G.M. Rhodes towards the preservation of Eaglesham.' In 1769 Alexander, 10th Earl of Eglinton, began the work of developing the old kirktoun of Eaglesham into a planned village. However it was his successor, Archibald, 11th Earl of Eglinton, that largely saw Alexander's plans through to completion. The 10th Earl was shot on his estate near Ardrossan by excise officer Mungo Campbell on 24th October 1769 following a dispute about the Campbell's right to bear arms on the Earl's grounds. Location of plaque 1484265. |
