Almost 300 new houses were given the green light to be built in Kilmarnock despite numerous concerns raised by neighbours.
A total of 294 of Bellway homes at Fardalehill, near Crosshouse Hospital, just off Irvine Road can now be built.
The new phase of the project, a mix of two, three and four bedroom houses, will be based behind the existing estate, on the other side of Bonnyton Road.
