Paisley: Can a cultural revolution change thread town s fortunes?

BY the time French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte set up the 1806 trade blockade that halted the supply of silk to Britain, Paisley had already established itself as a textile centre home to thousands of weavers. But that attempt to cripple British trade triggered an innovation that would turn the town into a manufacturing powerhouse. Within years, Paisley was home to the third largest corporation in the world and its eponymous pattern had become iconic. More than 200 years on from Bonaparte’s blockade, the town no longer produces the cloth but local leaders hope to pull on those threads to weave a new story after years of commercial decline and industrial drift forced a strategic rethink of what makes a town. The result is an overarching regeneration plan to make culture king in the home of John Byrne, Gerry Rafferty, David Tennant and Paolo Nutini.

Kirkintilloch: Housing development on primary school site with Charles Rennie Mackintosh connection comes to market

The new development By Ian McConnell LUXURY housing developer Panacea Homes has opened a show home to promote its properties on the site of the former St Agatha’s Primary School in Kirkintilloch. “The Primary”, a bespoke 15-home redevelopment, comprises a “luxury sandstone reconversion” of the primary school building itself, retaining original features, as well as new-build, semi-detached and detached homes on the former playground. The school, formerly known as Gartconner Public School, was created by the architectural firm Honeyman & Keppie and built in 1897. This architectural firm was created by John Honeyman and John Keppie in 1888. Renowned architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh joined this practice in April 1889 as a draughtsman and progressed to partner level, Panacea Homes noted.
