Event Details
AYROC’s next activity on Saturday 30th August 25 at 11.00 will be at Lawthorn Park, Irvine, when there will be two courses a Long 4km (memory or with map) and Short 2.5km.
Lawthorn Park is a small area of mixed woodland and urban on the edge of Irvine. This is a new map. The area is mostly unkempt public space with some open spaces and some dense vegetation around Lawthorn Primary School. Lawthorn Mound, near the centre of the area, is an artificial hill several thousand years old; it has a legend of being a site where justice was dispensed. Because of the relatively small area and the extensive path network Light Green is probably the highest degree of difficulty available.
There are usually a number of dog walkers, cyclists and other recreational users in the area, please take care to avoid them.
We will meet in the carpark at Littlestane Hall which is on Littlestane Road, in Irvine, post code KA11 1RH, Grid Reference NS345406, Lat and Long 55.631121 -4.6303940. There is a BP petrol station at the big roundabout at the junction of Littlestane Road, the Long Drive and Cairnmount Road.
At the BP station there is a small snack bar with a toilet.
The cost for this activity is £2 per individual and £5 per family.
