Auchincruive is a former country house and estate in South Ayrshire, Scotland. It is located 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) east of Ayr, on the north bank of the River Ayr. Auchincruive House was built in the 18th century on the site of an earlier mansion. In 1927, the estate became the West of Scotland College of Agriculture, and the house was renamed Oswald Hall. The college became the Scottish Agricultural College in 1990. In 2007 the college announced that the site would be disposed of for redevelopment, and masterplan proposals were approved by South Ayrshire Council in January 2011.[1] The house is protected as a category A listed building, along with other buildings on the estate.[2] The estate is included on the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland, the national listing of significant gardens.[3] The house was returned to its original name of Auchincruive House in May of 2020, the listed building records have also been updated to reflect this.
