Airds Moss

Airds Moss is a moor in East Ayrshire, between the rivers Ayr and Lugar.

Its blanket bogs have caused it to be designated as a Special Area of Conservation.

Richard Cameron died here in a skirmish on 22 July 1680 in which a number of other prominent Covenanters were either killed or captured.
