Hill Street was made one of a number of 'conservation streets' by Irvine Development Corporation. Here it is in 2024. Earlier plans, proposed by the Burgh Council, included demolishing half of Hill Street, along with other historic thoroughfares, to create a 'ring road'.

I'll be posting a few photographs of various parts of #IrvineNewTown over the next few weeks. I'll try to keep it chronological.
