Was born there in 51. Walked the High St. as a constable in the 70's. My family still lives there. I'm in Colorado. Miss the high St. and the beach. Thanks for this video.
Your welcome thanks.
Why did you leave?
My wife at the time, couldn't adjust to the country. She was born in Colorado. Broke my heart to leave. My Mum has since passed, so I won't be back. I do miss Ayr.
@@johngreenlees9843 my lineage goes back there , for some reason I’m drawn to head there!
Many thanks for sharing. I left Ayr in 1974 and while this was great to see I also found it looking sad and empty compared to the thriving High Street back in the day. I only noted 2 buildings unchanged, The Bank of Scotland and Marks & Spencer which are both still in the original locations. It would appear that all the bars and restaurants are all long gone (e.g. Bucks Head, Duff Inn, Matha Dickies, The Plough) As a young man I worked Saturdays at Coopers Supermarket and later at Thomson's the Hatters, both on the High Street.
Thanks
Best place on earth magic ayr
Soctland is my dreamland ❤
Can see lots of changes in the High St ,lived in Ayr for 20 years,really miss it,thanks for your video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it thanks !
Hello my friend
Very good sharing, a big like for you
Have a good day and see you soon
thanks.
I will be there for the first time in September, thank you for showing this city 😊
Good video of Ayr presenting it to best advantage. Good soundtrack. I was born in Ayr.
Me too Rab! Are you still in Belmont? Lol
Last walked those streets 62 years ago when I was a little lad . Woolworths was like Disneyland. Miss thos3e days so much. Ayr High Street is nothing like it was back then, old one-off shops were still in the majority. Modernisation has taken nearly all it's beauty away.
I left Ayr over 30 years ago and don't remember so many "To Let" signs and closed businesses.
Thank you for the video. I used to spend a few weeks each summer in Ayr when I was a kid in the mid-1960s to early 1970s. I haven't seen the place since the early 1970s, but what I remember was the fresh air, sunshine, being able to swim in the outdoor pools (I think somewhere near the beach), and even Butlin's for a week around 1971. I've got fond memories of Ayr.
There's been quite a few changes in Ayr since this was filmed, with some of the shops having closed down and others have moved to different units. The area at the end of the video with hoarding around it was the previous Woolworth site and has now been opened up with seating by the River and the Cutty Sark building available for events. They now also hold the monthly Farmer's Market there which is proving popular with more stall holders joining each month and it's a much better site than the previous space which was much smaller on the High St. Although a lot of places have closed, there are some signs of new beginnings. There is to be a new Cinema at the previous Odeon site, Queens Court which has so much potential appears to be getting renovated and there are around 4 new places getting ready to open in Newmarket Street in Ayr which is a lovely wee street with Independent shops and Cafes. Sadly the Station Hotel had a major fire 2 days ago, so not sure what will happen up there once it's all been surveyed etc.
I've no been there since I worked at Butlins in 83 Lol , it's changed a lot since then I've alot of great memories of aye
Thanks
What has happened to my beloved home town ?,can hardly recognize it,I left in 84 moving to the states ,but have been back many times ,but it is still sad to see the closed shops,and the high street empty,big change from when i was a young man,it was a great place too live back in the 70,s.
think its much same as other high streets Jim unfortunately very hard to compete with internet.
Yes for the bowlagon
das war eine tolle Zeit in ayr
found your channel a few weeks ago and i am hooked, but i like it more when you talk and not do the music. please make more. How about Oban ?
Being from Ayr and having worked on the high street as as young boy its changed in so much as the shop fronts but the street it self remains the same. A Bit shocked to see the demolished building at the bottom of the town i guess this was due to being structural unsafe of the buildings ?.I worked in Lipton's store which is cornering on the old brig as a 14 year old boy that was my Saturday job to earn some extra cash going back a few years ago. Great video keep them coming I am now living in Asia and have done for 17 years i sometimes get back for a holiday that's again.
thanks Gordon, as you said the street hasnt changed much really just the shops, have you seen the new shopping centre just off the high street at czcams.com/video/lwLElFC5Syo/video.html
@@scotsmantravels3288 yes was back a few years ago and was inside the center pretty impressive thank you cheers
Often wondered watching the racing! What is that steeple type building in Ayr? Is it a church?
Yes
Left Prestwick in 84. Sad to see what Ayr High St is like.

As of lately yes, it looks absolutely abandoned alongside most of Ayr now. SA Council are putting funds back into the Citadel now apparently so there's another rotting building on the high street. What a shame.
Theres also a fun game on roblox looks like this

The High Street's so bad he disnae even get to the end o' it.
Theres new bus stops
AYR CITY TO DHAKA CITY.
i think it needs all pulled down & rebuilt
I like the scenery, but more commentary and less music would’ve been helpful…
Not a very diverse town looking at the people
