I have attached some photos. On one you can see Dennyholm street houses (left bottom – they look like chalets) and on the other a map showing that “the Dennyholm” (street) ran parallel to Newton Street but was on a level at the back and beneath the street. (next to number 836 on the map). The street itself ran all the way into the mill complex.
The other two photos show: the entrance to the mill complex and the demolished site before they built the new housing estate.
The North Ayrshire Directories of that time describes them as “a long row of houses prone to flooding.” The census of 1921 shows them as having only 2 rooms each. You can see them in this photo, to the left, bottom.
I have colourized this for a better effect.
The area has been completely replaced with the Dennyholm Wynd Housing Estate.
In the 1900s the street had shops and a school. Dennyholm Street no longer exists.
