Fairhaven at Kirn
Image: © M J Richardson Taken: 2 Jun 2017
A view of one of the 'courtyard' areas. An interesting housing development, seen here from Ardenslate Road. Built, I have been told, in the 1960s for the American forces based at Holy Loch, but I have been unable to find any details. There are 10 V-shaped blocks, each of about 9-10 interlocking flats and maisonettes, in a pleasant landscaped garden setting. As a housing development it is far more attractive than the standard UK 1960s housing blocks.
