Glengarnock Co-op building

The building on Main Road, near Glengarnock railway station, was once home to several co-operative shops, including a grocer, a cobbler, a dairy and a butcher.

The ground floor has been modified, but a "KILBIRNIE Co-operative Society Ltd" ghost sign survives on the corner.

Ornate carving in the stonework includes many Co-operative symbols such as a pair of shaking hands, various fruits and the words "Unity Liberty Charity". The date 1899 is also prominent above the clock.
