Work has been completed on the restoration of stonework of the Abbey Tower. It is now looking great, but a great deal of clearing up and reinstatement of displays is needed before we can re-open to the public. We're aiming for Easter 2027.
Heather Upfield has released her new paper on The Garnock Downstream. Click on our Downloads page to find the link along with many other free downloads.
Restoration work on the Abbey Tower is now gathering pace. The Tower is owned and maintained by North Ayrshire Council, and is home to our Heritage Centre. Check our Facebook page for updates and photos of the work in progress.
The volunteers of Kilwinning Heritage apologise for the closure of the Abbey Tower Heritage Centre since February 2025. North Ayrshire Council is planning a programme of repairs. Other KH activities will continue as normal: free public talks, research, community archive project, book sales etc. For up-to-date information, contact us or follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Kilwi...
