Ayr RFC - Millbrae

Millbrae

Millbrae is a rugby ground used by Ayr for both training and practice. It has two full size rugby fields, one overlooked by a grandstand, and a clubhouse, which is used mainly for changing rooms and the bar, but also contain squash courts and several storage rooms. Millbrae is adjacent to the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum and can be accessed either by a dirt road from Alloway or via a small gate beside the museum.

Millbrae became Ayr's home in 1964, the club having moved from the original ground at Newton Park to Dam Park, then to the Old Racecourse and King George V playing field before finally taking up residence in Alloway. Newton Park is now the venue of international bowls competitions, Dam Park is an athletics stadium and King George V is given over to soccer, although its claim to fame came from the time of a full Scottish trial was staged there in 1958, every other ground in Scotland being frostbound.
