Comments on map:
Unclear whether scale is to be taken as 1:4752 or 1:4800, but as there is a scale of chains perhaps 1:4752 is correct. Below 'abstract of contents', top right, is 'Copied from the Plan of the Estate of Kilmarnock and corrected to this date'. Main interest is rural rather than urban.
