Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a town plan map for Dreghorn like there is for Kilmarnock, Irvine and other towns and I haven't been able to find it on the Victorian Ordinance Survey Map.

Hello Donna,

Dreghorn was a parish as well as a village. If you go to the web site
www.old-maps.co.uk and enter Dreghorn in the search box you'll see amap
of the area circa 1860. You can then use the arrows at the edge of the
map to move around, and if you're very lucky (!) you might find Leggat.

Good luck

Robert
