| Here is the Saxone Shoe factory where footware of the best quality was produced for a great many years. Sadly cheap imported shoes made this company unviable and after a steady decline it ceased to exist. |

| At this spot is the grave of Johnnie Walker the Kilmarnock grocer who founded what would later become the world's most popular whisky. Blended and bottled here in the town it was sold the world over and continues to be the number one whisky throughout the world. |

 Gilmour St, Kilmarnock. Lived in this building as a child until 1968. Absolutely fascinating to see. |

I stayed in the defiance building that sat at the corner of Lawson st across from the lounge door of the Bellfield Tavern where the new houses are now.I moved at the same time as I think this is when all the old streets were demolished. I was only 5 at the time so don't remember to much.It is great to see the streets but I can't get any pictures of the defiance building but can just see a small part of the back of it in one of the pictures,next to the B.M.K. |
