Seamill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seamill is a village in North Ayrshire on the west coast of Scotland, about 5 miles north of Ardrossan and 8 miles south of Largs.
It is sometimes considered part of West Kilbride, and sometimes considered as a village in its own right. The local authority has sought to consolidate it with West Kilbride by signposting it as "West Kilbride incorporating Seamill", however it is still locally identified as an entity in its own right.
It is named after one of its oldest buildings, the Sea Mill, a grain watermill that appears in Johannes Blaeu's Atlas of Scotland published in Amsterdam in 1654. It has a hotel called the Seamill Hydro which has a swimming pool, tennis court and a football pitch. There is a golf club known as West Kilbride Golf Club, with a putting practice green and a course with eighteen holes.
