The oldest business in Prestwick is the Bank Top Garage. The garage has its origins in Wilfred Armstrong whose mother used to run the White Swan at Dinnington. Following the First World War, when the use of petrol driven engines exploded, he set himself up in business as a haulage contractor. The main part of the current garage would appear to date from the 1950’s. In the 1970’s it was trading as W. Armstrong & Son at the Bank Top Garage. Much altered and expanded over the years, the garage is still in business today and still run by the Armstrong family.
