Inveraray Bell Tower
description: The tower was built as a war memorial by the Tenth Duke of Argyll, Niall Diarmid Campbell to mark the huge loss of life in the great war and especially those members of Clan Campbell who came from the local towns and villages. The Duke conceived the idea of building a tower and installing a set of bells at the end of the War in 1918. The bells were actually cast first and delivered in 1921 before work on the tower began. Meanwhile the Duke commissioned architects Hoare and Wheeler of London to design the tower, the final decision being accepted in 1926. Eventually in 1930, the tower, at 39m(128ft) high, was finished and the bells weighing nearly 8 tonnes were installed by Christmas 1931.

Ironmacannie Mill
description: Ironmacannie Mill, one of the largest in south west Scotland, milled grain for all the farms on the Kenmure Castle Estate. Reputed to have been built around 1640, it continued working until 1947. The wheel is 14ft in diameter, 4ft wide and is in full working order. Much of the machinery, including three sets of grind stones, is still in situ. Retiring here from a Stewartry farm in 1996, the door to which the Mill’s new owner Chris Mason wished to find the ‘key’ was that of Sustainable Green Energy. As the mill wheel has no proper bearings for 24 hour a day working, the water is diverted to a turbine which produces 60 kilowatts of electricity a day. In turn, this runs a water sourced heat pump to more than adequately heat the Mill where Chris and his family live and the Feed In Tariff for the surplus electricity that is produced buys power to run an air sourced heat pump to warm next-door Mill Cottage. It’s all very ingenious, and the burn, mill pond and garden are beautiful too.

Irvine: Irvine Royal Academy
description: In June 2015, Irvine Royal Academy had 1,000 Solar Photovoltaic panels installed. These generate electricity for the school to use.

Since the install, about 10, 746kWh has been exported to the grid. There are 8 inverters which convert the generated electricity the current from DC to AC to allow it to be exported. This system is the largest PV array to be installed in a school in Scotland. The school also houses two 500kW biomass boilers. The boilers are fuelled by wood chip and use approximately 300 tonnes per year. The wood chip is blown into a store in the school and filtered through into the feed-in pipe into the boiler. There is also a back-up mains gas central heating system. Accompanying the boilers are two buffer tanks which hold 5,000 litres of water each.? ?

John Mellis' Honey Farm
description: “We work up to sixteen hours a day, seven days a week for around seven months each year, otherwise it’s brilliant. I simply love being out on the hills with the sound of happily working bees around me.” On a winding back lane at Auldgirth are the fruits of fifteen million worker bees, capably supported by John Mellis and his partner Joan, who work nearly as hard. John and Joan will welcome you to a whitewashed converted byre to show you how and where some of Britain’s very highest quality honey is produced. All around is birdsong and the sound of the river – and bees. The flower-covered hills and glens of south west Scotland provide 350 hives of bees with their occupation, allowing John to produce many distinct types of honey, the main ones being: Spring honey made early in the year from trees; Blossom honey from flowers in high summer; Heath and Wildflower honey from wild flowers on higher land; and a magnificent Heather honey from moorland belonging to the Duke of Buccleuch. John pays his rent in jars of honey. Bees forage in the flowers for nectar and store it in their hive within wooden racks of waxy honeycomb. The nectar becomes honey in the hive and is bee food designed to see the colony through winter. As the honey is removed, John feeds his bees in winter on a specially made ambrosia syrup. During summer John works a sixteen hour day, sometimes starting at 4am because the bees fly at dawn and must be moved to the moors during the night in readiness for morning. During a good summer the bees can fill a hive with honey in a matter of days. Once a honey-laden super is brought back to the farm Joan takes over. Each honeycomb is placed in the extractor, which spins with the speed gradually increasing for ten minutes at up to 280rpm. The honey runs into a bucket and is filtered before bottling. And, of course, it tastes wonderful

John Paul Jones Museum
description: "I wish to have no connection with any ship that does not sail fast, for I intend to go in harm's way" John Paul Jones lived in an age of great change, and thrived on it. He was born in 1747, when the landscape, agriculture and industries of Scotland were being reformed in the aftermath of the Jacobite Rebellions. Ideas, too, were changing and this was to ignite a war of independence in Britain’s American colonies and a revolution in France. Jones shape-shifted throughout his eventful life: a 13 year old gardener’s son with a longing to go to sea; as the captain of a slave ship accused of murder; as a high ranking officer in the navy of the newly independent United States; and finally as a self-styled ‘citizen of the world’ who died in poverty in Paris in 1792, the year that France became a republic. John Paul even changed his own name and nationality, adding Jones when he chose the side of the United States. The cottage, on the Solway coast in Dumfries and Galloway is a fun filled attraction for all the family. Learn all about the Dumfriesshire born American hero of the US Revolutionary War. Visit the cottage where he was born in 1747 and grew up as a young boy. Step into the magnificent replica of his cabin from his most famous ship the BonneHomme Richard, in which he defeated the HMS Serapis at Flamebourgh Head. Take a walk through the museum and enjoy lots of pictures, information, facts, replica models of his ships and two short films. Join the many American visitors who make the pilgrimage every year to the cottage to pay homage to the Father of the U.S. Navy. Enjoy some refreshments and browse the gift shop.
