📌 Kilbarchan, Renfrewshire
★★★

Like many settlements in the Scottish Lowlands, Kilbarchan grew up thanks to a thriving textile industry. The Weaver’s Cottage in the village centre lets you step back in time and discover what life was like for a handloom weaver 200 years ago, in a traditional building housing Kilbarchan’s last working handloom. Fascinating tartan weaving demonstrations run on most days, and there’s also a garden containing plants once used for dyes.
