NEWTON, a village, in the isle and parish of Great-Cumbray, county of Bute; containing 444 inhabitants. It is seated at the head of a capacious and finely sheltered harbour, called Kames bay, where vessels of considerable burthen may have safe anchorage at the depth of six feet at low water: the bay opens southward into Fairley roads. Millport, the chief village in the island, lies at a very short distance on the west.
