Flower Delivery to Alva by Clare Florist
Alva is a small town between Menstrie and Tillicoultry in Clackmannanshire, Scotland. It forms part of the towns that constitute the Hillfoots villages. There are many shops in Alva, a few pubs, a library and a medical facility. There are also two beautiful parks which are the Johnstone Park and the Cochrane Park which houses the local Cochrane hall. Some of Alva's attractions include the McArthur Braes, a once neglected park that has been refurbished and open to the public, the golf course, Stirling Street, war memorial and the Lady Aberdeen home.
The town developed quickly between the 18th and 19th century with the coming of the Alva Burn powered textile mills which provided jobs for locals and migrants coming to the area. Today, there are a number of prominent buildings in Alva such as the Strude mill, a former wollen mill that has now been converted to a block of flats. There is the old mill trail center near Cochrane Park and housed in the Old Glentana mill which was built in 1887. It houses permanent exhibitions which display what the old wollen industry looked like.
