Stephen Andrew, Technical Director for Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, said: "Taylor Wimpey is delighted to confirm that along with our partners Lynch Homes, we have secured planning permission for the provision of 290 new homes on the land off Main Street in Barassie near Troon.

"As well as an impressive range of new homes, our development will provide a range of economic benefits for the local Troon area which includes supporting over 160 jobs per year of construction, as well as the attraction of new customers to local businesses.
