Old Photographs Irvine Scotland

Old photograph of boats in the harbour in Irvine, Ayrshire, Scotland. The town was once a haunt of Robert Burns after whom two streets in the town are named; Burns Street and Burns Crescent. He is known to have worked in a flax mill on the Glasgow Vennel. Despite being classed as a new town, Irvine has had a long history stretching back many centuries and was classed as a Royal Burgh. There are also conflicting rumours that Mary, Queen of Scots stayed briefly at Seagate Castle. To this day there is still a yearly festival, called Marymass, held in the town.
