  • Local Child Poverty Action Report Renfrewshire 2019/2020 Foreword
    Local Child Poverty Action Report Renfrewshire 2019/2020 Foreword This report sets out activities undertaken in Renfrewshire to reduce child poverty between April 2019 and March 2020. This, our second report, shows how we have built on the work we have carried out in previous years, and that which was reported last year in our first Local Child Poverty Action Report. The report has been jointly developed by Renfrewshire Council, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC), and Renfrewshire Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP). It also includes information about partnership work to tackle child poverty across Renfrewshire’s Community Planning Partnership and beyond. Normally, the Local Child Poverty Action Report would cover future plans for the year ahead, however, from March 2020, the response to Covid-19 became a significant focus for the Council, the NHS and partners. Safeguarding families and individuals became increasingly vital within what is an ever-changing landscape. Our Council teams quickly put initial measures into place: providing payments to families in place of free school meals; relaxing Scottish Welfare Fund rules and quickly ensuring a supply of essential food and other items was in place for our most vulnerable families. This was supplemented by the forming of a Local Assistance Team, Neighbourhood Hubs and a Community Food group to help facilitate a Renfrewshire wide community response to Covid-19 issues. As the year continues we know we will have to deal with more unemployment and lower incomes in families from furloughing, continued shielding and protection of vulnerable people along with issues, financial and otherwise, caused by school closures.

  • Renfrew~H I Re Local H I 3Tory
    RLHF Journal Vol.2 (1990) 2. Renfrewshire's historic monuments - a heritage under threat: A summary of local archaeological problems with a bibliography and brief site list. Gordon McCrae It is said that the past is another country. If this is true, the more distant past often seems like an alien planet. The recent welcome flood of books and pamphlets about the history of our area has done little to change this perception. The study and reinterpretation of medieval, Roman and prehistoric Renfrewshire remains sadly neglected. This may be due, in part, to the problems which confront a local historian trying to make sense of the archaeological record. These problems include (a) - lack of a current bibliography of sources, or an accessible site list, for use as an introduction to local monuments; (b) the fact that much important information is only available in out-of-print books and obscure periodicals; (c) the difficulty of dealing with the large gaps in the archaeological record; which is compounded by (d) ,recent wholesale reinterpretation of classes of monuments due to advances in archaeological techniques. Finally (e) the scientific and technical nature of these techniques which make them the exclusive preserve of 'experts'. Another persistent problem, since the demise of the Renfrewshire Archaeological Society, has been the lack of a local forum for people interested in discussion, fieldwork and preservation. Various bodies have sponsored investigations over the years - Paisley Museum, Glasgow Archaeological Society, Renfrewshire Natural History Society, The Ancient Monuments Inspectorate, The Ordnance Survey, and, more recently, the Regional Archaeologist and the Scottish Urban Archaeological Trust.

BARGARREN ARMS. PAISLEY: ALEX. GARDNER. 1877. f Bvb. q-toZ3 ^Tstorical medical INTRODUCTION. Witchcraft is a subject that has bulked largely in the history of mankind. A belief in it has been by no means confined to dark ages and barbarous nations. In Jewish history it held a prominent place. The first king of Israel banished wizards and witches from his borders, but could not set himself free from faith in their spells. Many of his successors had deal- ings Christianity, with familiar spirits ; and down to the days of Gentiles as well as Jews all over the world attributed to cer- tain men and women supernatural powers that were generally exercised for evil. Christianity, though it gave a blow to superstition, by no means eradicated it. The influence of heathen beliefs and practices did not cease to be operative when the majority of a nation formally surrendered them. The evil one has always been regarded as the great king and master of the wizard band ; and faith in Witchcraft is yet to be found among certain followers of all religions that recognise the existence of the spirit of darkness.

  • Headington, Bridge of Weir
    M209 Headington, Bridge of Weir Introduction This large, L-shaped, roughcast detached house with curved gabled dormers derived from 17th-century Scottish vernacular architecture, is located in the affluent Renfrewshire commuter village of Bridge of Weir. It was built for Alfred Allison Todd, partner in Dunn & Todd, a Glasgow firm of chartered accountants. Authorship: Drawings showing a slightly different treatment of the house were in Mackintosh's possession at the time of his death, and suggest that he contributed to an early stage of the design process. The plan, materials and historical references have parallels with Windyhill and The Hill House, but the house was built according to drawings signed by John Keppie, and it seems likely that Keppie had overall control of the design. Alternative names: Easter Hill; Easterhill. Cost from job book: £2899 4s 8d Status: Standing building Current name: Easterhill Current use: Residential (2014) Listing category: B: Listed as 'Easterhill' Historic Scotland/HB Number: 12775 RCAHMS Site Number: NS36SE 74 Grid reference: NS 39620 64997 Chronology 1902 April: Earliest date on drawings submitted to County of Renfrew Second or Lower District Master of Works department. 1 8 May: Contractor tenders accepted. 2 14 May: Application to build submitted to County of Renfrew Second or Lower District. 3 13 June: Plans approved by County of Renfrew Second or Lower District. 4 1905 20 April: Final payments to main contractors. 5 Description Origin and names Alfred Todd commissioned John Honeyman & Keppie to design a cottage at Bridge of Weir in 1898. However, that project appears to have been abandoned following the tendering process.
