Memorial to the covenanters killed at The Battle of Aird's Moss located in the grounds of Auchinleck Parish Church. This battle took place between The Scottish Covenanters and the Royalist troops of King Charles II in 1680. This period of ongoing hostilities was known as 'The Killing Time' The Covenanters were members of a religious and political movement in the 17th century. This stemmed from the dissatisfaction with the doctrine of Kings Charles I who believed that the King was the head of the church and wished to unite the churches of Scotland and England. Many of these changes were deemed too Catholic for the Presbyterian Scottish Kirk who believed they were subject only to God.

A memorial headgear remnant of the Barony Colliery which operated from 1907-1989. Now a B-listed monument. The site contains a memorial to 4 miners who lost their lives in 1962 when one of the shafts collapsed. Their bodies were never recovered. There are also information boards documenting the miners strike in 1984. Located behind the A-Frame there is a pump track, it is slightly overgrown but still ridable and an interesting route deviation.

Crawick Multiverse is a land art project by the landscape architect and designer Charles Jencks near Sanquhar. Opened in 2015 it is located on the site of a former open cast coal mine. It's visually very striking and well worth stopping to take a look at if your route goes by.

The Burns’ cairn was built by members of the New Cumnock Burns Club (500) in 1973 to mark the 50th anniversary of the club. It overlooks Afton Water, honoured by Burns in ‘Sweet Afton’. The stones for the cairn were hauled by the members of the Burns Club from the head of Afton Water, quite some work!
