Bridge Of Weir

Lying within the Gryffe Valley and providing a crossing factor for the River Gryffe, the town today serves mostly as a dorm room settlement for neighboring Glasgow as well as Paisley although it maintains a commercial centre of its very own and some light market. The first semblances of the town became with the rise of the West of Scotland cotton sector. From around 1793 the river Gryffe was being used to power many cotton spinning as well as covering making mills. One of the most considerable industry to emerge in the village was leather. At its performance optimal the little town supported three tanneries. The leather industry makes it through to this particular day, now on a solitary site, in the form of an extremely successful, modern facility with five Queen's Awards for International Business.
