NEWMILNS CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY 1856-1971
There are reports of a co-operative society in Newmilns in the early 1840s. The Newmilns Economical Society is listed in the 1851 Ayrshire directory and attended the Ayrshire conference in 1852. The stores for the society were broken into in 1859[1].
The Newmilns Co-operative Society was formed in 1856[2]. Starting with a capital of £30 the company had, like other old co-operative societies only paid a dividend on shares. However in 1860 it started to pay a dividend on purchases and to issue checks. In 1863 the stock was worth £468 and the had paid a dividend of 5% on shares and all purchases.
The Galston, Newmilns and Darvel societies joined together to form Loudoun in 1971. Loudoun joined the CWS in 1994.
