About Architects
An architect designs buildings, extensions and renovations - turning your ideas into detailed plans that meet building regulations and planning requirements.
Whether you're planning a new build, converting a barn or adding an extension, an architect will manage the design process from initial sketches through to construction drawings.
In Scotland, look for an architect registered with the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and ideally chartered with the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland (RIAS).
About Bonhill
Bonhill is a village on the east bank of the River Leven, directly opposite Alexandria and forming part of the continuous Vale of Leven settlement that stretches from Renton in the south to Balloch in the north.
The village is one of the oldest settlements in the Vale, with a parish church dating back to medieval times. Bonhill Bridge, connecting the village to Alexandria, has been a key crossing point on the Leven for centuries.
Like its neighbours, Bonhill's growth was driven by the textile industry - bleaching, dyeing and calico printing - that made the Vale of Leven one of the most important centres of fabric finishing in Scotland during the 18th and 19th centuries.
Bonhill has a primary school, a community hall and local shops and benefits from the wider services available in Alexandria. Bus services connect the village to Glasgow and the surrounding area.
About West Dunbartonshire
West Dunbartonshire is a council area on the north bank of the River Clyde, stretching from the western edge of Glasgow at Clydebank through Dumbarton to the southern tip of Loch Lomond at Balloch.
The area has a proud industrial heritage shaped by shipbuilding, engineering and manufacturing. Clydebank was one of the great shipbuilding towns of the world - the Cunard liners Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth 2 were built in John Brown's shipyard - and the town bore devastating damage during the Clydebank Blitz of March 1941, one of the most destructive bombing raids on any British town during the Second World War.
Dumbarton, the administrative centre, sits at the confluence of the River Leven and the Clyde, overlooked by Dumbarton Rock and its ancient castle - a volcanic plug fortress that has been a stronghold since at least the fifth century and served as the capital of the medieval Kingdom of Strathclyde.
The Vale of Leven - Alexandria, Bonhill, Renton and Jamestown - runs north along the River Leven to Balloch, the gateway to Loch Lomond. The area is well connected by rail, with services from Balloch, Dumbarton and Clydebank reaching Glasgow Queen Street and Glasgow Central in 30 minutes or less and the A82 providing the main road route to Loch Lomond and the Highlands.
