Default Farm at Red Row?

Hello everyone.
After believing my grandfather worked as a dairyman all his life in Ayrshire, I’ve just found out that he worked on a farm at Red Row around 1939/40. I have a picture of my father aged about 4 ( he is now 84 ) standing next to a paling fence with 2 calves & a tall Square brick chimney in the farm steading/yard. He can’t remember the name of the farm but thinks the farmers surname at the time was Hemsly. He can remember aeroplanes taking off from a nearby airfield heading off to war. Does anyone know of a farm with a tall chimney around Red Row which was a dairy farm at this time or has any info about the farmers name. My father was born & started school in Ayrshire so it’s 80 yrs since he was last there & I would like to take him back to the farm if I can, if it is still there.
Any info would be appreciated
Thanks
