Derelict industrial building
Seen across Western Road, are the abandoned engineering offices for Post Office Telephones (now British Telecom (BT)). These offices were still in use during the late 1980's / early 1990's until centralisation meant they were no longer required.
There was a previous use for the BT building that being of company offices for Southook Potteries. This was part of Shanks (later known as Armitage Shanks). The take over of Shanks resulted in the closure of all premises in Kilmarnock and the building was taken over by Post Office Telephones.

This was operated by the Caledonian Railway The further arch crosses the now closed Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway a rival line operated by the Glasgow and South Western via Dalry.
