Plans have been passed to extend a memorial garden area in Cumnock.

An application was lodged with East Ayrshire Council from Green Action Trust, on behalf of Cumnock Action Plan (CAP).

The proposals will see an addition to the CAP's revamp of a green space near Armitage Drive.

Completed by Cumnock Action Plan, phase 1 of the new garden offers residents the chance to learn some of the past of Cumnock, as well as take a seat and enjoy the garden.

The new plans will create a second phase of the Memory Garden on the areas of open space between Armitage Drive and Hearth Place.

Plans say that, building on the success of phase 1, this phase will create a safe and secure garden space which will include a new path and surfaced activity space, boundary fencing and gate, seating, pergola raised beds and sensory planting.

East Ayrshire Council approved planning for the extension of the site last, with development to begin within a maximum of three years.
