Kinloch Park...

I hope they landscape the whole area and put in paths, flowerbeds and benches and make it into a real park

There are not enough recreational areas in the town for people to go and sit. I wonder why they removed the benches that used to be there.

At the moment the whole green is just one big void

This would be my way of thinking about Kinloch Park, maybe the time is right for change with the Aqualibrium near completition and Park Square being redeveloped. Also the roads dept are moving out of their yard, anyone know what the plans are for this piece of land. Charlie McMillan's yard also under offer or sold

Nothing against football on Kinloch Park, I just think things are looking brighter for Campbeltown and this area could be brightened up. New Ferry running, new golf course and loads of visitors flocking to the area after visiting Davie's website.

Thats right Michael, just last night I was out for a refreshment here in Oban and a couple were asking about where to go for music festivals etc, so I gave them the shpeel on MOKMF, in fact today they are coming to Campbeltown, they will be staying at my friends B and B tonight, maybe for longer.

If they are visiting Campbeltown today, better bring wellies or waders.
Same old story, flooded streets

Its strange to see so many peple posting on here opposing the use of Kinloch Green to play football but NOT really commenting on the state it is in...

As one who has played on the green in my youth the sight of games on the green is great. There is still plenty of room for everyone else...!

Back to the point mind you - the green is a disgrace!

our councillors will likely accept the state of the green, but it wont stop them getting their faces in the local press when aquabajh aqua...aquali - the pool! - is officially opened. Maybe the pics that day could be taken round the back wi the flood in view??

Work to remedy it hasnt solved the problem that has been there since the paths were done. Though the park behind the memorial has never been roght either since SW dug it up.

I agree, it is a disgrace....

Anyone got any news on this? Was it being discussed at the CCC meeting on MOnday?

When I was a young girl, so many years ago, I had to travel from High Stret (through the sleet and snow, and hailstones -- Just Kidding, but sometimes) to the Grammar School, where we all went. I do not understand why we have the big puddles there BECAUSE on each side of the paths there was a couple of feet worth of ditch, which ran (who knows where) but it took the water out to the esplanade and then into the loch, I presume. What is up with that. If anything, can't someone build a good and decent French drain where it is the deepest to drain it off?

Sorry! I am a wee might confused!
