Paisley Northwest

Paisley Northwest ward covers a residential expanse on the town's northern edge, characterised by a mix of post-war housing schemes and more modern developments. The area includes neighbourhoods like Foxbar and Hunterhill, providing homes for a significant portion of the local population. Its layout is defined by practical street grids and green spaces like Barshaw Park, which offers recreational facilities and a large pond.

The ward is anchored by several key community facilities, including a modern campus for West College Scotland. A notable local landmark is the former Anchor Mills, a vast, Category A listed thread mill complex on the banks of the White Cart Water that speaks to the area's industrial heritage. This part of Paisley functions primarily as a settled residential district, with local shopping parades serving daily needs.
