A STUNNING new mural is now on display in Stevenston.

The project has been completed thanks to the town's community council who secured £5,000 of national lottery funding.

This helped prepare the old beach pavilion which has now been transformed by local artist Tragic O'Hara.

The mural is a fantastic new addition to the beach front in Stevenston, with plenty of colour now on display.

While the building has also been painted with the town in mind, with the rich history of Stevenston - and some deserving locals - included in many of the images.

Tragic's mural also takes us on a trip further down Ardeer, with one section created to focus on the industrial area of the town and the many businesses who operate, or did operate, there.

While there is a familiar face amongst the many parts of the mural, local litter picking legend Ian Cassidy, carrying his usual waste collector, and accompanied by 'Princess Lola'.

He said: "A massive thank you to everyone involved in this project to transform the exterior of the beach pavilion at Stevenston beach.

"The transformation is going down a storm with the local community. A dilapidated building has been transformed and now the pride of the community.

"It is with immense pride to see Princess Lola immortalised on the Building. Princess Lola was always by my side for every beach litter pick and the pavilion was her wee castle where she could hang out and watch the world go by.

"The special times for Stevenston continues apace as we celebrate the most special beach in North Ayrshire."
