At Risk

12 Strand St / 1-3 Dunlop St, Kilmarnock

The buildings at 12 Strand Street and 1-3 Dunlop Street were listed category C(s) in August 02 in recognition of their historical importance and their essential contribution to an early part of the Kilmarnock townscape. The trust has been able to trace a commercial use for the property from about 1820, but it may have been constructed a little earlier. During this period one of the properties has been a well-known Public House and the trust had hoped to find a link to Johnnie Walker. It is the Trust's intention, subject to the agreement of Historic Scotland, to restore the property with the main entrance on the gushet elevation.

Despite the recent fire, the Trust still hopes to be involved in this project, working with a Kilmarnock based arts company, The Tradition Bearers and Common Ground Scotland.
