Clackmannanshire West

Clackmannanshire West ward encompasses the western portion of the county, including the main population centre of Alloa and its surrounding settlements. The area is defined by the River Forth to the north and agricultural land to the south, with a landscape that transitions from urban to rural. Historically significant for its role in the brewing and glassmaking industries, the ward contains notable architecture from that era, including the former Patons & Baldwins mill complex.

The ward's geography includes the distinctive hill of Dumyat, part of the Ochil range, which provides a prominent backdrop. The area features several community parks and the policies of the former Alloa House. Transport links are central, with the railway line and the A907 road passing through. The presence of the Forth Valley Royal Hospital is a major local facility serving a wider region.
