Kilbarchan Conservation Area

Kilbarchan is an ancient settlement which grew from about 1740 into an important hand loom weaving centre, extending in long informal terraces along four main streets.

At its heart is Steeple Street, linking the Cross with the National Trust for Scotland's Weavers' Cottage. The Steeple building in Steeple Square is a notable piece of provincial classical urban design. Designated as a conservation area in 1970, it boasts 61 listed buildings.
