About Brookfield

Brookfield is a small settlement on the western outskirts of Johnstone, sitting along the A761 road between Johnstone and Kilbarchan.

The village has a largely residential character, with a mix of older cottages and more modern housing and functions primarily as a quiet commuter community within easy reach of Johnstone's services and railway station.

Brookfield sits on the edge of attractive Renfrewshire countryside, with farmland and woodland nearby and the villages of Kilbarchan and Houston a short distance to the west.

Transport links are good for a settlement of its size — Johnstone and Paisley are both close by road and the wider motorway and rail network is easily accessible, making Brookfield a practical residential choice for those working across the Glasgow area.

About Renfrewshire

(opens in new tab)

Renfrewshire is a council area in west-central Scotland, lying immediately to the west and south-west of Glasgow on the southern bank of the River Clyde. It covers around 270 square kilometres and has a population of roughly 180,000, making it one of the more densely populated council areas outside the four main cities.

Paisley is the largest town and administrative centre — the fifth-largest settlement in Scotland — with a rich industrial heritage built on thread-making, weaving and the iconic Paisley pattern that took the town's name around the world. The medieval Paisley Abbey, founded in 1163, remains one of the finest monastic churches in Scotland and is believed to be the birthplace of the Stewart royal dynasty.

Beyond Paisley, the landscape varies considerably. The northern strip along the Clyde is low-lying and industrialised, taking in Renfrew, Inchinnan and Erskine. The centre and south-west rise into the Renfrewshire Heights, a belt of rolling farmland and moorland dotted with attractive villages like Lochwinnoch, Kilbarchan, Houston and Bridge of Weir that have a distinctly rural character despite being within easy reach of Glasgow.

Transport links are excellent. Glasgow Airport sits within the council boundary at Abbotsinch, the M8 motorway crosses the area east to west and railway lines connect Paisley, Johnstone and the surrounding towns to Glasgow Central in as little as ten minutes — making Renfrewshire one of the most accessible parts of the Glasgow city region.
