    EAST AYRSHIRE the community plan planning together working together achieving together Contents Introduction 3 Our Vision 3 Our Guiding Principles 4 The Challenges 8 Our Main Themes 13 Promoting Community Learning 14 Improving Opportunities 16 Improving Community Safety 18 Improving Health 20 Eliminating Poverty 22 Improving the Environment 24 Making the Vision a Reality 26 Our Plans for the next 12 years 28 Our Aspirations 28 2 Introduction Community planning is about a range of partners in the public and voluntary sectors working together to better plan, resource and deliver quality services that meet the needs of people who live and work in East Ayrshire. Community planning puts local people at the heart of delivering services. It is not just about creating a plan or a vision but about jointly tackling major issues such as health, transport, employment, housing, education and community safety. These issues need a shared response from, and the full involvement of, not only public sector agencies but also local businesses, voluntary organisations and especially local people. The community planning partners in East Ayrshire are committed to working together to make a real difference to the lives of all people in the area. We have already achieved a lot through joint working, but we still need to do a lot more to make sure that everybody has a good quality of life. Together, those who deliver services and those who live in our communities will build on our early success and on existing partnerships and strategies to create a shared understanding of the future for East Ayrshire.

  • Stewarton Road
    The Avenue Street / Graham Terrace portion of the town centre is a designated Conservation Area and it is proposed that the conservation area should be extended to cover the High Street area of the town. It is recognised that the needs of the community, in so far as leisure activities are concerned, are likely to change in the future and that this warrants a greater channelling of resources into the area. The most pressing priorities are the expansion of secondary education facilities in the town, the provision of new leisure facilities at an appropriate location to serve the Glasgow Link Corridor and the upgrading of the B778 Fenwick / Stewarton road. It is intended that developer contributions will be specifically directed towards funding these particular initiatives. Stewarton 2017 which reflects anticipated demand and is commensurate with the designation of the town as a Stewarton is a thriving small commuter town with a Service Centre and as a strategic expansion location. population of 6,582 in 2001 which has undergone Care has been taken, however, to ensure that future rapid expansion in recent years.

  • Newmilns & Greenholm Community Action Plan 2021-2026 Profile
    Newmilns & Greenholm Community Action Plan 2021-2026 Profile 1. Brief Description and History 1.1 Early History Evidence of early habitation can be found across The Valley, with the earliest sites dating from around 2000 BC. To the east of Loudoun Gowf Course, evidence has been found of the existence of a Neolithic stone circle and a Neolithic burial mound lies underneath the approach to the seventh green. A site in Henryton uncovered a Neolith barrow containing stone axes (c. 1500 BC) and a Bronze Age cairn dating from about 1000 BC (the cairn itself contains cists which are thought to have been made by bronze weapons or tools). Following this early period, from around AD 200 evidence exists of not only a Roman camp at Loudoun Hill, but also a Roman road running through The Valley to the coast at Ayr. The camp was uncovered through quarry work taking place south of Loudoun Hill but tragically much of this evidence has been lost. According to local workmen, many of the uncovered remains & artefacts were taken with the rest of the quarried materials to be used in road construction projects. Typically, little is known of The Valley's history during the Dark Ages, but it seems likely that an important battle was fought around AD 575 at the Glen Water. In addition, given the strong strategic importance of Newmilns' position as a suitable fording place and a bottleneck on one of Scotland's main east-west trade routes, it is not unlikely that other battles and skirmishes occurred during this period.

  • The Biggart Family and Kilmaurs Cutlery
    The Biggart Family and Kilmaurs Cutlery Background I have been a collector of Scottish provincial silver for almost 20 years, living in the town of Kilmarnock, only 2 miles from the village of Kilmaurs. Despite this, I was unaware of the cutlery trade that flourished in the village in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Recently a fork and knife of striking appearance, bearing the mark “AB”,were brought to my attention. It was suggested that they might be an example of Kilmaurs cutlery. This was when I became aware of the trade, prompting this investigation. I started with fairly simple aims, namely to identify the “AB” and to clarify, if possible, the scale of the trade. In the course of the investigation it became obvious that there were many unanswered questions to be tackled. Consequently, the scope of the investigation widened considerably, leading to this article. In the course of what follows I hope to outline what is known about the trade, to describe and illustrate the known examples of Kilmaurs cutlery, as well as to tackle some of the unanswered questions which emerged in the course of the study. Starting Point A few pieces of cutlery are held in our museums(1) and, in rare cases, private hands(2), that have been ascribed to the small village of Kilmaurs, in Ayrshire. I have identified 11 “sets” of a fork and knife, and one single fork, which are described and illustrated later in this article. As I prepared the article to go to press, I have been made aware of a further 2 “sets”, one with the maker's initials of D.B.
