	Happy Haggis - taking Lochwinnoch to the world (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Lochwinnoch is located 5 miles/8km west of Paisley on the A760 and B786.
		The village of Lochwinnoch grew up around it's church and by the thirteenth century the chapel of Lochwinnoch was under control of monks of nearby Paisley Abbey.
		It was constructed in 1922 by shipping magnate Henry Lithgow and it provided rail access to the shooting butts for field sportsmen from all over Britain who descended on the moors to test their shooting skills against the fast-flying game birds which skimmed low across the heather to escape the cracking guns.

	Lochwinnoch Information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Lochwinnoch has a long and fascinating history; from having one of the earliest recorded schools in Scotland, based in the Collegiate Church which was built in 1488; to boasting of having one of the biggest most modern silk mills in Scotland when it was opened in 1814.
		Lochwinnoch was once labelled the curling capital of the world with two curling stone manufacturers and furniture was produced here for some of the world's finest ships, including the Lusitania and the Queen Mary.
		But perhaps it is the people of Lochwinnoch and their varied and thriving activity groups that makes the village a good community and such and interesting place.
