I was walking back to the car park for Suilven after an overnight camp today, when I spotted this pair of stunning Red deer stags in front of me, I think they were distracted by my bright colourful attire and seemed quite at ease with my drone flying over them. Here's a quick edit from my van before heading back down the road, a wonderful way to end my trip.

It looks quite good but completely out of context with the existing hen huts....
@@michaelflynn6276 yes it does look good, with more on the way, perhaps starting from next season
@@amacmedia3221 like to see Ayr back. Saw them in there in the 70’s they took the huns out a couple of times down there…..comfortably!
Crackin new stand/Old Skool ground 👍 respect from a Cumbernauld Arab 🍻
@@robbie73vespa you can’t beat an old school ground
Would this stadium be able to host top tier games in Scotland? A similar style of stands behind each goal would be superb addition.
@@AbdulBinRahman-ec6mk possibly a long term plan for the club
Nice development. Well done Ayr Utd for keeping the terracing too!
@@callummccormick8211 it is a nice touch
In 1976 whilst working at the County Hotel Wellington Square Ayr I got my first ever pay packet and amongst other things had my first ever paid for meal at the Station Hotel Omelette and chips because I had pissed nearly all my pay heck up the urinal wall and it was all I could afford. Now in London I pay £65 for a Dover Sole
@@andrewsmith-cm9qw great memory
Lovely too see a proper football ground, the new stand looks great.
Stadia done right
Good to see a traditional approach being taken to the architecture. Looks great.
@@vanderark89 fits in well
Tell us how much a season ticket cost and the cost of an executive box.
@@jllewellyn3776 you would be best to approach the club for their season ticket prices as well as looking into booking an executive box, good luck
Just not sure why they didn’t just fill the whole stand with seats
@@steviefn2typer standing areas seem to be coming back in fashion
@@amacmedia3221 absolutely, we have 2 at rugby park, this stand just looks a bit odd with 4 rows of seats stuck at the back
@@steviefn2typer I think the seating area is purely for hospitality, I did think at first why not all seats. I believe there are now plans to fill in or extend the section where the main stand doesn’t reach the corner flag, unsure if this will be seating or terraced
Stll got standing.terrace if get n to premeir.league the will only have main stand and that model stand 😂

A soft opening!!! How appropriate. 😂
Great video. The seagull's are a bit mental this time of year due to protecting their young. They're much better at flying than we are though so their moves were to warn you off rather than attack.
Thank you, I’m glad it was just a warning as the drone wouldn’t stand a chance against those seagulls
Excellent mate 🙏
Thanks mate
Very kind of you
It looks good, Alistair, and nice work with the drone 👌🏼
It’s sad when people set old buildings on fire for no reason
Absolutely, no reason to have done this
Sad to see it go. I worked there for a little while when I was a student in Ayr. It’s a beautiful building. Thanks for posting.
You must have some great memories of the place, it’s pretty much all been demolished now, possibly another month or so of demolition as it’s all by hand now being right next to the railway line
Nice to see the club is doing well (from a neutral).
Definitely moving in the right direction with the current owner
Thank you for sharing, I can't wait to see it all myself, in a few weeks I'll be there
You are very welcome, unfortunately it probably won’t be dark enough now until mid August to fully appreciate the night skies
Really sad to see this but I suppose it had to happen😞
It is still going on, I think a few weeks more of the demolition work will be carried out
What a sad sight. It was such a grand building and the first thing you saw at the station. Ayrshire has changed, but not for the better. The area has lost a lot of heritage. Was it deliberate, was it negligence? I grew up in Kilwinning and my old hometown has been decimated with building and redesign. Can't things be restored and left alone?
Yes it was started deliberately a few times prior to the last one in September 2023
. T f
😊
Good to see it go. It passed the point of return many years ago. The choice was - derelict building or operating railway.
Agreed, it was such an eyesore for locals and visitors
Great work. Is it a total demolition project or is there plans to salvage what’s left (which does not appear to be a lot)
I'm. A gers fan good luck to Scott Brown at Ayr
Good honest football club not got the bigotry and hatred of old firm real fans
They do seem quite a progressive club
@@amacmedia3221 there a good club honest football people who love the game
Any plans for the site?
A new bus & train hub has been mentioned, as has new housing and shops, nothing definitive yet though.
When will the Malaysian owner be getting the bill for the damage he has caused?
It would be great to hear his side of the story
When will people take their blinkers off and take a look at the bigger picture? Look at the motive in place for the buildings deterioration and demolition. The site has long been planned for a new transport hub. The people who wanted that transport hub are...?
Och aye a train and trannie hub….a cunning plan
I remember staying there back in 1979 shame it's will soon be history
greetings- you shared top content-
Thank you ☺️
Brilliantly captured. It's such a shame to see it being torn down. Thanks for sharing 👏
Very kind of you, many thanks
So sad....😢
Still a shit hole. Just like the town itself.
It is disgusting to witness the appalling treatment inflicted upon this building, both by its owners and the council. It is important to acknowledge that the council had already expressed their desire for a new "transport hub" on this site long before any of these events unfolded. The purpose of listing a building as a heritage site is to ensure its protection and preservation, yet sadly, this has not been the case here. We have regrettably lost one of Scotland's most magnificent and expansive railway buildings. The replacement will be nothing more than a glorified tin shed. Never forget the disrespectful manner in which the South Ayrshire council has handled our cherished history and heritage in this instance. The demolition of listed buildings through mystery fires etc needs to stop. I only wish this could go the same way the Crooked House pub has in the Midlands.
I’ve just posted an update video on the demolition progress
Excellent and appropriate music for such a tragic situation. All because a cowardly Council (of all political colours) did not get a grip of the situation that festered for years. A once-handsome county town is going doon the lavvy week-by-week.
Thank you
Certainly. This building could indeed have been preserved, and it should have been. The council had already made plans for its demolition long before any of these events occurred as the site had long been earmarked for a new transport hub for quite some time. The ODEON site was also intended to be part of this transport hub with a new bus station on that site. That process began with the demolition of Burns House offices, and the removal of the ODEON cinemas' listed building status a few years ago. Fortunately, Merlin Cinemas have intervened and taken over the building, saving it from being lost, for now. Nevertheless, it is sad that we have now lost the largest and grandest railway building in the entire southwest of Scotland, and perhaps even the entire west coast.
Amazing filming. The flying and editing are spot on. I was down in Ayr yesterday flying and noticed the Hotel such a Sad thing to see. I remember it when I was a child. How things have changed. Well done
Very kind of you
The " inevitable " end...😢
Getting there slowly
Always been a cracking wee ground, this will definitely enhance it and build on the fantastic atmosphere you always get there , good luck Ayr and great video , all the best from a Hibby 💚
Very kind of you
Are they keeping terracing there or are they outing seats in it ?
I believe the front section is to be terracing, with the rear section having seating
Looking great. It is bigger than I expected. Your Chairman is truly going for it with the facilities which is brilliant. I read a big new gym and more in the open corner of main stand in going to be built also if finance can be found. Somerset park with become the envy of the majority of clubs in Scotland soon. Please post another drone vid once it is all completed, would be great to watch.
Very kind to say so. Yes I hope to do at least one more, the club is certainly in goods hands with the chairman, looking very professional with all the improvements so far
Was in the stadium in the late 60s …..I think the new stand will “make”the Place ….Good Luck to United and your New Manager Scott Brown …..
Definitely will improve the look of the place, hopefully results on the park will also improve
Calf muscles were bad for six months as the path is quite solid and that is why I like your option. My drone envy is now so high I may need to request for my May birthday.
I’ve only had mine a month or so, but love it for out on the hills
Excellent stuff with some beautiful drone footage of my favourite lochs and mountain. It is cold enough camping up there in June let alone January and I have walked back the way you came but never up. It took over 3 hours up the Kirkaig path last summer which killed me and my calf muscles. Thanks for the tip but I'll take sandals for the loch crossing . Cheers Graham
I’ll be taking other footwear next time too lol. I found my calf muscles tight for days afterwards
