Bouverie, Port Glasgow

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

The Bouverie 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. Including Bouverie Motors the owner bought most of the lands of the disused ropeworks. It banks steeply upward towards the twentieth century housing areas of Upper Port Glasgow, and has impressive views over the River Clyde. The Port Glasgow Rangers Association is also located there. Bouverie was bombed during the second world war, and as a result the street was dramatically reduced in size. Bouverie is situated behind the site of the old mill,which is now home to a retail establishment. Bouverie had, originally two sides to the street, however these were demolished, partly because of the WW2 bombing from Germany's notorious bomber elite. It was demolished in 2014.
