Scope and Content Girvan Steeple ('Auld Stumpy'), South Ayrshire Girvan Steeple was originally built as part of the now-vanished 1822 Town Hall. Its £1,633 cost was apparently value for money because ten years later it was said to have caused 'a marked improvement in the peace of the town'. The Steeple is now free-standing. The Town Hall was demolished in 1909 and replaced by the McMaster Hall. This burnt down in 1939 taking with it the spire which was then rebuilt. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
