Renfrewshire, Administrative council area in western Scotland
Renfrewshire extends along the southern bank of the River Clyde, featuring urban centers in the east and agricultural landscapes in the western region.
The region gained county status in 1404 under Robert III, establishing the administrative foundation centered around the royal burgh of Renfrew.
The textile industry of Paisley, particularly during the Industrial Revolution, shaped the manufacturing legacy and economic development of Renfrewshire.
Glasgow International Airport, situated between Paisley and Renfrew, serves as a major transportation hub connecting Renfrewshire to international destinations.
The birthplace of William Wallace in Elderslie marks Renfrewshire as a significant location in Scottish medieval history.
