Despite the name, Newshot Island isn't actually an island, as it is connected to the southern bank of the River Clyde. The Inner Clyde estuary is an internationally designated site for the protection of wintering wading birds. The NHS Golden Jubilee Hospital can be seen on the other side of the river.
