Beith
A late 18th century licensed distillery near Beith, Ayrshire.
This Ayrshire distillery likely sat by the Stevenston Burn, which runs north to south through the Stevenson area, east of Saltcoats and Ardrossan.
OS coordinates support this, placing the distillery in the centre of the town of Stevenston. An 1850s map shows a corn mill beside the burn just north of Main Street/Townhead Street. This may well have been the site, as many distilleries were converted to mills after their closure.
Stevenston distillery was operational from 1816-17 under an unknown distiller.
Once producing a floral, citrus malt within Girvan's grain complex, Ladyburn's whisky is now rare.
