This 2021 wide-angle view of Maybole, taken from Auchenwynd Farm, shows the extent of housing on the hillside near Gardenrose Primary School. The factory building on the left is the home of SAS International, a company that supplies the building trade with metal-worked products such as doors and suspended ceilings. The factory was built on the site of the former Ladywell Factory where hard-wearing boots were produced. The trade collapsed in the early 20th century, having made a world-famous Maybole product for many years. For a similar earlier view, see Image
