Ayr homes unveiled by Newton Primary kids
NEWTON Primary School pupils helped unveil a new housing complex on Ayr's King Street.
The 22 houses and flats, developed by Ayrshire Housing, are grouped around a courtyard called Cross Gait and designed to have high energy efficiency brief.
They were designed by John Gilbert Architects and built by Prestwick based Ashleigh Building at a cost of £3.1million, with a Scottish Government grant of £1.4million making it possible to rent the houses at affordable rents.
South Ayrshire Council’s Depute Provost Mary Kilpatrick said: “The partnership with Ayrshire Housing is really important to the Council in reducing the long waiting lists for housing. I’m sure that these houses will become delightful homes for the new tenants”.
