Bridge Of Weir
Bridge of Weir is a town within the Renfrewshire council area and also bigger historic area of Renfrewshire in the west main Lowlands of Scotland. Existing within the Gryffe Valley and providing a crossing point for the River Gryffe, the town today serves largely as a dorm settlement for close-by Glasgow and Paisley although it preserves a business centre of its very own and some light market. The very first semblances of the town came to be with the increase of the West of Scotland cotton industry. From around 1793 the river Gryffe was being used to power many cotton rotating and covering making mills. One of the most substantial industry to arise in the village was natural leather. At its productivity top the tiny town sustained 3 tanneries. The leather industry survives to now, now on a solitary site, in the form of a very effective, modern-day center with 5 Queen's Awards for International Business.
