I look forward to sharing many posts about interesting places to visit in and around this historic, beautiful and fascinating town. Saturday, January 19, 2013. St Marnock's Parish Church. A large pink sandstone church with a four-stage tower constructed in 1836 and designed by the architect, James Ingram - it was actually his first major work. It stands on St. Marnock Street between the Police Station on the left and the Sheriff Court on the right. Labels: St Marnocks Parish Church. My Art and Photography.

Around Kilmarnock: November 2012
http://jane-aroundkilmarnock.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
I look forward to sharing many posts about interesting places to visit in and around this historic, beautiful and fascinating town. Thursday, November 8, 2012. There used to be seven streets which fanned out from The Cross but, owing to a major redevelopment in 1970, some were demolished. Many shops, the bus station and a car park were built in their place. You can also find the modern (and controversial) Burns Shopping Mall to one side. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Click on most of the photos to see them...

Around Kilmarnock: August 2012
http://jane-aroundkilmarnock.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
I look forward to sharing many posts about interesting places to visit in and around this historic, beautiful and fascinating town. Saturday, August 18, 2012. Olympic Mural, Sandbed Street. The idea came from town centre manager, Fiona Nicolson, as part of the plans to regenerate the area. It's certainly a huge improvement and I hope that more murals and other ways to make this old street, and indeed the whole area, more attractive, are in the pipeline. Wednesday, August 8, 2012. A marvellous ruin to vis...

Around Kilmarnock: New Laigh Kirk
http://jane-aroundkilmarnock.blogspot.com/2012/10/new-laigh-kirk.html
I look forward to sharing many posts about interesting places to visit in and around this historic, beautiful and fascinating town. Thursday, October 18, 2012. This town centre church was built in 1802, enlarged in 1831 and then completely refurbished in 1996 by W I Munro Architects, who won a Civic Trust Award for part of the town's regeneration. In 2002 a new stained glass window was added. There are Covenanters' graves, which are historically very interesting, to be seen in the adjacent churchyard.

Around Kilmarnock: September 2012

I look forward to sharing many posts about interesting places to visit in and around this historic, beautiful and fascinating town. Friday, September 7, 2012. I walk through this lovely 30 acre park two or three times a week, on one side of the pond to get to the Library and Dick Institute, or the other side following the river, the Kilmarnock Water, down to the town. The park was gifted to Kilmarnock by the local insurance broker, Alexander Kay and opened in 1879. Tuesday, September 4, 2012. Edward VII ...
