Bouverie, Port Glasgow

Bouverie, Port Glasgow

Bouverie is an area of the town of Port Glasgow, Inverclyde, Scotland.

The Bouverie area was developed in the late nineteenth century as part of Port Glasgow's eastward expansion. Originally consisting of ancillary shipbuilding-related businesses, and workers' housing, it now mainly consists of residential buildings and a handful of small service industries. It banks steeply upward towards the twentieth century housing areas of Upper Port Glasgow, and has impressive views over the River Clyde.
