Constituency profile

BBC profile:^[1]

The northern boundaries of this constituency hug the Clyde River and take in the historic town of Renfrew, the pre-1975 centre of local government for the county of Renfrewshire.The constituency has within its boundaries Bishopton, home to the now defunct WWII-built Royal Ordnance factory. The land it stood on became the focus of controversy in 2008 when Renfrewshire Council granted planning permission for a housing development. As traditional industries have died in the area, new business has flourished. Renfrew's Braehead on the south of the water is a well-developed commercial enterprise featuring a large shopping centre and leisure facilities. The constituency also has within its boundaries Glasgow Airport.
