Largs

Largs is a burgh in North Ayrshire, Scotland. It is a seaside resort with a pier. The town was the site of the Battle of Largs in 1263, in which a Scottish army attacked King Hakon's Vikings, in a confrontation which led to the Norse abandoning Western Scotland soon after. Also in the town is the Skelmorlie Aisle mausoleum.

A ferry service runs from Largs to Great Cumbrae, while Waverley paddle steamer also runs cruises from the seafront. The town also lies on the railway line from Glasgow to Ayr and on the A78 road.
