East Ayrshire Council has announced new homes have been developed in Galston.

Council Leader Douglas Reid and Councillor Eòghann MacColl were joined at the development by local members Councillors George Mair and Bobby McDill.

Councillor Reid said: "As part of the Council's ambitious house building programme 197 new homes are being built across East Ayrshire.

"The homes are specially designed to change the lives of local people who have been in housing that was previously unsuitable for their needs and to regenerate communities by building on sites that could have lain derelict for some time.

"The Jamieson Court development is particularly attractive and I was delighted to view the homes now they are occupied."
