The A8 Renfrew Road

This was the main road from Glasgow city centre to the former Glasgow Airport at Renfrew. The M8 is just behind the bushes on the left and it leads to the present Glasgow Airport at Abbotsinch. The parapet of a bridge over the railway line to Kings Inch can be seen beside the cones on the right and the road sign on the left. This line once ran all the way to Renfrew, but now stops a few hundred metres to the right of the bridge.
