Irvine Harbour in Ayrshire
The now Spliced pedestrian footbridge crosses the River Irvine in Ayrshire and at one time served the Big Idea Dome of Scottish Invention which was built on the reclaimed ICI Noble site at Ardeer.
From the beginning the visitor attraction dome failed to inspire the public and finally close down in 2003 citing a large financial loss. The so-called Bridge of Scottish Invention was closed to the public in 2005 but still giving access to vessels into the sleepy harbour
There was much talk of building a golf course in the area and utilising the Dome as the Clubhouse but nothing has came into fruition.
