Dailly (Scottish Gaelic:Dail Mhaol Chiarain)[2] is a village inSouth Ayrshire,Scotland. It is located on theWater of Girvan, five miles (eight kilometres) south ofMaybole, and three miles (five kilometres) east ofOld Dailly. "New Dailly", as it was originally known, was laid out in the 1760s as a coal-mining village. In 1849 a fire broke out in Maxwell Colliery, one of the nearby mines, and continued to burn for 50 years. In Dailly there are two castles which the locals call the new castle and the old castle; they are both derelict.
