North Ayrshire Council is holding seeking views on the final plans to allow local residents a chance to view the plans for new housing, which includes a mix of general needs houses, amenity bungalows and homes suitable for wheelchair users.

It is hoped that construction can start in spring/summer 2023 on the £10 million project which will be supported by a Scottish Government grant.

Scott Davidson, cabinet member for place at North Ayrshire Council, said: “We have made a commitment to deliver 1,625 new homes for our residents and this ambitious development is a key part of those plans.

“The former Garnock Academy site will hold nostalgic memories for many people in the Garnock Valley and it’s great to see the site being given a new lease of life with the creation of more modern, energy-efficient homes.”

The site will provide a mix of two, three, four, five and six bedroom homes.

The final plans are available to view online until Friday 28 October.

The council is also holding a local, in-person, event on Thursday, 27 October.
