An iconic Scottish nightclub once dubbed the best in the country has been honoured in an artist's latest work. The Metro nightclub, previously known as The Metropolis, in Saltcoats, Ayrshire, was a hugely popular venue in the 1990s.
The nightspot attracted dance fans from across Scotland and further afield, with scores of English ravers also regularly making the journey to the club. And Ayrshire artist Tragic O'Hara, real name Steven McIntyre, highlighted the importance of the club to the county by including it in a mural he painted earlier this month.
He painted the venue's famous sign as part of the painting, which also features other local landmarks. It now adorns the side wall of the town's Home Hardware store, on a lane between one of the streets in the town's shopping district and the shorefront.
