Attractions Near Grey Hill
Kennedy's PassKennedy's Pass lies on the course of the A77 Trunk Road, 4 miles southwest of Girvan on the South Ayrshire coast. It used to represent a narrowing in the road, which follows the raised beach along the coast. As the road rounds a little headland here, it is constricted between cliffs and a distinctive rock pinnacle. Widening the road to create the modern A77 created a challenge.
Carleton castleCarleton Castle is a ruined five story 15th century tower house whichcan be seen from the coast road far below, with spectacular views out across the bay below. The castle comprises a small rectangular tower, with one of its corners having fallen down. Carleton was the property of the Cathcart family and legend suggests that one laird, Sir John Cathcart, funded his lifestyle through a succession of wives, murdering each before moving on to the next.
Stair ParkStair Park is Girvan's shorefront park and remnants of the sand dunes from which it was created can still be seen in its undulating form. The park features a bandstand, all weather tennis & netball courts, skatepark, football pitch and a football stadium. The park and stadium were named after the Earl of Stair, who bequeathed the land to the local authorities.
Victory ParkVictory Park is one of the main venues in Girvan for community events such as football matches, gala days and Lowland Gatherings. There is also a children's play area, formal rose garden and "Victorian" shelter.
