The ancient barony of Carriber was called after the Norman knights of that name who settled there in the reign of David I of Scotland. It was granted to Robert (Rab) Gib in 1539 by James V under the Register of the Great Seal, for his continued loyal services as his Master of the Horse. Rab Gib went on to build Carriber Castle or Rab Gib's Castle (now ruined) overlooking the River Avon. The present Easter Carribber Farmhouse was built in the late 18th century on the site of one of the farms, dating from 1513 and belonging to the castle.
