Renfrew And It's Ferry ????????????????????????????
Renfrew is the former county town of the historic county of Renfrewshire, situated 3 miles northeast of Paisley and 5 miles west of Glasgow.
Recently named as one of the UK’s top towns, the historical county town of Renfrew has lots to offer. It is also known as ‘the cradle of the Stewarts’ for its early links with Scotland’s former royal house. The stunning A-listed mid-Victorian Renfrew Town Hall building, often referred to as the ‘Disney Castle’ for its distinctive tower, should be your starting point, housing a VisitScotland 4-star-awarded community museum which tells the story of Renfrew’s rich heritage. The town is also ideally-placed for exploring the Renfrew Riverside area and the many shopping and leisure activities available at intu Braehead and Soar.
The Renfrew to Yoker ferry provides a passenger-only ferry service across the 200m wide River Clyde between Renfrew on the south bank and Yoker on the north bank.
Since April 2010 the service has been operated by Clyde Link. The ferry currently in use appears to be nameless, which is unusual for a boat. We also show on this page the ferry initially used by Clyde Link, the Island Trader, an aluminium landing craft built by Robust Boats of Haverfordwest in Wales.

Old Photographs Johnstone Renfrewshire Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Johnstone, Scottish Gaelic: Baile Iain, a town in the council area of Renfrewshire and larger historic county of the same name in the west central Lowlands. This Scottish town was a planned community created in the latter half of the 18th century by the local Laird, George Ludovic Houston who held an estate in the town, the remains of which are known as Johnstone Castle. Industrial development brought coal mining, thread-making and cotton weaving to Johnstone causing it to grow considerably in size, expanding out in the 1930s with a number of newly built residential areas which addressed the problem of population density in the historic area of the town. Today it supports a small commercial centre and serves as a commuter settlement for Paisley and Glasgow. Shanks Park in Johnstone is named after a leading industrialist of the nineteenth century who owned a company of heavy machine toolmakers, Thomas Shanks and Company. Thomas Shanks was Johnstone's first chief magistrate. Thomas's daughter, Mrs J Polson, gifted the park to the town in the name of her late father.

Road Trip Drive With Bagpipes Music On History Visit To Colinsburgh East Neuk Of Fife Scotland
Tour Scotland 4K early Autumn travel video of a road trip drive, with Scottish bagpipes music, on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Colinsburgh East Neuk of Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. In the 18th century this Scottish village was noted as a weaving centre. The industry faded in the late 19th century. Colinsburgh is named after Colin Lindsay, 3rd Earl of Balcarres, born 1652, died 1722, who gave the land on which it was built. It was here that the first meeting of the Presbytery of Relief was held in 1761 after its founders had broken from the Church of Scotland. Balcarres House just north of the village, is based on a mansion built in 1595 by John Lindsay, second son of the ninth Earl of Crawford. The house became the family seat of the Earl of Crawford. The surname Crawford was first found in Lanarkshire, Gaelic: Siorrachd Lannraig, a former county in the central Strathclyde region of Scotland, now divided into the Council Areas of North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, and the City of Glasgow. Spelling variations of this family name include: Crawford, Crawfurd, Craufurd, Crawferd, Crawfford, Crafford, Craford, Crafort, Crayford and many more. John Lindsay Crawford, a Scottish farmer was convicted in Edinburgh, Scotland for 14 years for forgery, and transported aboard the Earl Spencer in May 1813, arriving in New South Wales, Australia; Robert Crawford, a Scottish convict who was convicted in Glasgow, Scotland for 7 years for theft, and transported aboard the Canada on 23rd April 1819, arriving in New South Wales, Australia; George Crawford, aged 27, a farm servant, arrived in Wellington, New Zealand aboard the ship Bengal Merchant in 1840; Charles Crawford, arrived in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1750; Francis Crawford arrived in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1750; Mary Crawford arrived in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1750; Andrew Crawford arrived in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1774; Ann Crawford settled in Augusta Co. Virginia, America, in 1640; Stephen Crawford landed in Massachusetts, America, in 1649; Donald Crawford landed in New Jersey, America, in 1685. Clan Crawford is a Scottish clan of the Scottish Lowlands. Sir Reginald Crawford was appointed sheriff of Ayr in 1296. His sister married Wallace of Elderslie and was mother of the Scottish patriot William Wallace. The Crawfords rallied to their Wallace cousin during the Wars of Scottish Independence. The Lindsay family originally lived in the parish of Lindsay in the northern English county of Northumberland. Ealdric de Lindsay held estates in both Normandy and in Lincolnshire, England. He was a tenant of English estates for the Earl of Chester. The Scottish surname for Clan Lindsay was first found in Lanarkshire, Gaelic: Siorrachd Lannraig, a former county in the central Strathclyde region of Scotland, now divided into the Council Areas of North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, and the City of Glasgow where they were descended from Randolph Lord of Toeni who was banished by Duke William from Normandy in 1058 along with many other knights. He settled on the borders of Lincolnshire and Leicestershire and erected a barony known as Linesi including Belvoir Castle. When the Duke of Normandy invaded England he was again forced to move and settled on the lands of Crawford in Lanarkshire Scotland. The Lindsays of Evelix or Evelick were a family of Scottish baronets from Evelix in Perthshire, a sub-family of the Clan Lindsay. Henry Lindsay, a Scottish convict who was convicted in Glasgow, Scotland for life, was transported aboard the Asia on 19th November 1827, settling in New South Wales, Australia.
