Has anyone ever heard of Presticole, Ayr, Scotland, United Kingdom?

Hello, I'm new here and appreciate this opportunity to ask a question about my great grandmother's birth place. I have family records that show that she was born in Presticole, Ayr, Scotland, United Kingdom. I have searched to find documentation but I can not find the name of Presticole. On other records I have found her birthplace listed as Prestwick, Ayrshire, Scotland, United Kingdom. Does anyone know if there was a place named Presticole in 1844, her birth year?

My great grandmother's name: Margaret Eccles Thornton

Birthdate: 4 Jan 1844

Parents: William Thornton and Mary Kennedy

Thank you for your help!
