Kilmarnock is Ayrshire’s second largest town, with a population of circa 46,000 residents and forms the western section of Scotland’s ‘Central Belt.’ The site is located on the western edge of Kilmarnock, accessed off the B7081/Irvine Road and is well placed for connections to Scotland’s motorway network, with junction 8 of the M77 lying 5 miles to the north east of the site. The nearest train station is situated in the Town Centre, 1.5 miles to the east and provides regular services to Glasgow Central, Carlisle and Newcastle.

Services Access to the final PDZs will be taken from Bonnyton Road, which bounds the southern boundary of the site. This connects into the new already existing spine road which serves the adjoining Bellway site and which is to be extended north into this development area. Under the existing consent there are a residual 310 dwellings remaining that can be delivered over these final PDZs. Due to the existing topography of the site, and the need to undertake earthwork operations to form development platforms, it has been assessed that the parcel split presented works independently and is the most efficient to avoid excessive works across the PDZs. Below is an outline of the servicing requirements for the development as a whole, but it should be noted that, there would be a reduced delivery requirement for bids on part and this is covered in greater depth in the executive summary: Main Enabling Works Required • Spine Road, labelled as `Proposed Traffic Distributor Road’ within the Masterplan document.

  • Dean Castle Development Project

    Dean Castle Development Project

    Dean Castle Development Project eastayrshireleisure.com A Brief History Dean Castle dates from at least the 14th Century. Built by the ambitious, influential and well-travelled Boyd family, the Lords of Kilmarnock, the buildings and estate continued to be lived in and developed until the mid-1700’s, when a large fire devastated the site. The Boyd family moved on shortly after and the site passed through the ownership of several important and influential people, until it was inherited by the 8th Lord Howard de Walden. From about 1905, De Walden set about re-building areas of the Castle that had fallen into disrepair. He used the Castle to display his collections of Arms and Armour, and early Musical Instruments. In 1974, the 9th Lord Howard De Walden gifted the Castle, estate and collections to the people of Kilmarnock under the stewardship of Kilmarnock and Loudoun District Council, now East Ayrshire Council. The venue has operated as a visitor attraction ever since, and is managed by East Ayrshire Leisure Trust. The Dean Castle site comprises a number of historic buildings set around a central courtyard. These are: The Keep Completed around 1350, the Keep is the oldest permanent structure on the site. It was the original home and stronghold of the Boyd family, Lords of Kilmarnock. As well as being a domestic residence, the work of the Lords was done here. It contains a Great Hall, private chambers, Minstrel’s Gallery, a dungeon, a guardhouse, and kitchens. The Palace (or Place) This building was finished around 1460 and was designed to accommodate the expanding role that the Boyd Family held in society and within political circles.

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.

    Redirecting to East Ayrshire Council

    EAST AYRSHIRE COUNCIL CABINET REPORT – 3RD OCTOBER 2007 ADDITIONAL STREETSPORT CAGES Report by Executive Director of Neighbourhood Services 1. PURPOSE OF REPORT 1.1 To request that the Cabinet approve the installation of two new StreetSport Cages in Crosshouse and Newmilns, and agree the proposed site for the similar facility in Darvel subject to the satisfactory outcome of consultation exercises. 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 Following the success of existing Multi-use Games Areas in Shortlees and North West Kilmarnock, Leisure Services have worked in partnership with East Ayrshire Sports Council to develop a network of these facilities across East Ayrshire. These new facilities now known as StreetSport Cages, compliment and extend the range of play facilities being made available through the Council’s Playpark Improvement Programme. 2.2 Further to Committee approval at Community Services Committee on 8th November 2006, a network of facilities was developed via a range of external and internal funding allocations. The development and subsequent installation of this network demonstrated East Ayrshire’s forward thinking approach to the development of Community Sport and its commitment to providing young people with positive alternatives to Youth Crime. This was highlighted nationally with the Council being featured on BBC Radio Scotland’s Good Morning Scotland Show and on BBC TV’s Reporting Scotland. 2.3 A subsequent report to Community Services Committee on 31st January 2007 approved the allocation of an additional StreetSport Cage to Darvel. Final implementation, however, was to be subject to a community consultation process. 2.4 The original proposal for the Darvel StreetSport Cage was to site it within the boundaries of Morton Park as the majority of youth disorder complaints being received from Darvel focused on this area.

The proposed new road is to be surfaced to adoptable standards and will be for shared pedestrian/vehicle use. 2. RECOMMENDATION 2.1 It is recommended that the application be approved, subject to the conditions listed on the attached sheet. 3. CONCLUSIONS 3.1 As is indicated in Section 5 of the report, the application is considered to be in accordance with the development plan. Therefore, given the terms of Section 25 and Section 37(2) of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997, the application should be approved unless material considerations indicate otherwise. As indicated in Section 6 of the report, there are material considerations relevant to this application which are supportive of the application. 3.2 It is considered that the objections relating to traffic, access, amenity, environment and local infrastructure have been addressed in Section 4 and are not of sufficient weight as to merit refusal of the application.

    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.
