Curlers at New Farm Loch (7)
All over Ayrshire, curling was a hugely popular sport as
people would come together in to play curling and get their blood
pumping in the cold Winter months. Nowadays, it is quite rare to
have lochs and ponds freeze over to be suitable for an impromptu
game due to the gradual warming of our Winter months. Nevertheless,
the game remains popular at indoor venues throughout the country.
