Activities

Project (March 2013 - September 2013)

A project to characterise the quantity and quality of the Scottish resource of known surviving remains of the First World War. Carried out in partnership between Historic Scotland and RCAHMS.

Desk Based Assessment (27 June 2016)

Nothing now remains of this shipbuilding yard as it is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Lanarkshire 1858, Sheet V). It comprised a roughly square area, measuring 2.4ha in extent between the former Clyde Street and the north bank of the River Clyde, and contained a small inlet/dock, a crane and several buildings, including a long range running adjacent to Clyde Street. The dock has been filled in and the site is no longer in use as a shipyard.

Information from RCAHMS (JRS) 27 June 2016.
