Langbank - About the Area
Langbank was originally a small farming community nestling on the banks of the River Clyde. The introduction of the railway from Paisley to Greenock brought commuters to the area, and the village now covers most of the hillside from Finlaystone Estate to the outskirts of Bishopton. The name of Langbank is thought to originate from the village's situation on the bank of the river, ‘Long ("Lang" being the Scots interpretation) bank’. The village sits on the A8 with excellent access to Glasgow and Paisley.| Your Community Council meets 2nd Tuesday monthly Church Hall, Langbank at 7.30pm | Your local authority is Renfrewshire Council
