Looking south west. The chimney of Mackay's jam factory is prominent (soon to relocate to Arbroath) and the maltings to the left of the tower now being demolished.

Last picture of Mackay's jam factory chimney
As the local paper the Guide and Gazzette termed it "A Carnoustie landmark has finally been demolished". The chimney has already been removed and the rest of the factory is in the process of being demolished to make way for housing. No notice was given of the demolition, but luckily I took this picture at the start of the month.
The factory was originally built by Bert and George Mackay of Dundee to process carrots. Production moved to jam for which the company is now famous. Jam continues to be made in the new factory on the Kirkton industrial Estate Arbroath.

View across West Path
The two roads on either side of Carnoustie House Grounds are East Path and West Path. The East Path is now named Queen Street. Mackays Jam factory chimney can be seen in the centre of the picture. I believe production has now moved entirely to the Arbroath factory.

Beech trees, Carnoustie House Grounds
The park is well appointed with mature beech trees. The foliage is newly unfurled and a fresh translucent lime green. Woodlands Primary School is visible in the background. The school opened in 2007 and as part of an upgrading and replacement programme by Angus Council.

Carnoustie Golf Hotel
The hotel was built for the 1999 Open Golf Championship. The burn in the foreground is the one where the French golfer Jean van de Velde famously went for a paddle!

Carnoustie golf course with industrial 'backdrop'
Landward of the golf course is the main east coast railway line and the Carnoustie maltings (closed in 2004) with its distinctive silos and the Panmure Works which is a former textile factory. It now operates as the HQ for a local supermarket company.
