Sandy beach between Largs and the historic Pencil monument.

"Named for its rather distinctive shape, The Pencil was built in 1912 as a reminder of the Viking influence over Scotland. Overlooking the Firth of Clyde and standing at around 70 feet tall, the pencil remembers the Battle of Largs, where the Scottish defeated 160 ships belonging to the Norwegian King Haco. Take a leisurely walk along the prom in Largs towards the southern end at Bowen Craig and you can’t miss this monument standing 70 feet high in the shape of a pencil. The view from this spot of the Firth of Clyde and the Marina are lovely." Source: https://hiddenscotland.com/listings/largs-pencil-monument

"As people stroll along the beautiful shore front at Largs, many will be unaware of the town's pivotal role in what was the biggest seabourne invasion in history - the Normandy Invasion - knows as D-Day" - text taken from the info board that has been installed to illustrate the importance of Largs towards the end of World War II.

Ο Magnus ο Βίκινγκ δόθηκε στους κατοίκους του Largs από το North Ayrshire Council το 2013 για να τιμήσει την 750η επέτειο της ιστορικής Μάχης του Largs. Οι Βίκινγκς ηττήθηκαν στη Μάχη του Largs το 1263, την τελευταία τους επιδρομή σε σκωτσέζικο έδαφος. Σύμφωνα με τη Συνθήκη του Περθ, ο Magnus Βασιλιάς της Νορβηγίας παρέδωσε τα Δυτικά Νησιά και το Isle of Man στην Σκωτική Κορώνα το 1266. (πληροφορίες ληφθείσες από την πινακίδα κοντά στο άγαλμα)
