Comment: Galston Parish Church stands high and proud in the middle of the village. Covered in trees on the one side and houses on the other, it's certainly a challenge to photograph.

Comment: At first glance the brickwork of St Sophia's (RC) in Galston is like a patchwork quilt. This a result however of extensive reno's in 2002-05 needed to keep the Church from being condemned and lifele |

Comment: Polwarth St at Henrietta in Galston. The streets were immaculate with no litter - but you take your life in your hands trying to use the zebra crossing. Drivers slow down. |

Building: Station Road School

Comment: The old School on Station Road Galston, looking rather sad with windows boarded up. A familiar and growing sight in Ayrshire. Late 1800's buildings are too small and too expensive to operate now. |

Comment: Rear playground of the old School on Station Road Galston. The once lively playground echoing with excited children, is now a virtual graveyard of weeds. A sad end to a lot of happy memories. |
