Scope and Content Aerial view of Port Glasgow Town Buildings, Inverclyde Port Glasgow Town Buildings replaced an earlier town hall found to be inadequate in 1803. An Act of Parliament was passed to allow a new one to be built but work did not begin until 1813. Funding came from public subscription and the sale of bonds. This building was built on the quayside of Port Glasgow's most important harbour, infilled in 1961-2. Though altered between 1861 and 1863, the exterior of the building remains almost in its original form. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
