Here
is a series of photographs taken from the top of Town Hall in 1993 by Alistair
Hastings. This nearly complete 360 degree panorama of
the town offers a unique perspective.
Click on the images to view a full
size photograph or for a very large scale picture select the Large Image link
at the end of each caption. The large images average about 300K in size and take
more than a minute to load on a 56k connection but are very detailed.

Moving
northward, Gardenrose Path is towards the right with the Greenside

Moving on to the
southwest you can see the Maybole
War Memorial in the centre distance and Baltersan
further round to the right in the distance with Crossraguel
very faint just beside it. Large
