Newark Castle, Castle Rd, Glasgow PA14 5NH (6 minutes drive by car) Newark Castle was built in 1478 by the Maxwell family. In recent decades, great shipyards eclipsed this castle, making it difficult to see apart from on the river. Now, only one shipyard remains. Explore the Jacobean details on the exterior, go ‘below stairs’ to see how the castle’s servants lived, soak up the stunning views over the Firth of Clyde from the Castle. Adjacent to the castle is the Clyde Walkway, a decked riverside walk.

In the industrial town of Port Glasgow, 25 miles west of Glasgow's city center, stands the 15th-century Newark Castle. The mansion, with a gatehouse and tower, was once the seat of the (sometimes murderous) Maxwell family. Although the Tower House rooms are not open to visitors, you can see the building's lovely Jacobean exterior and the fascinating "below stairs" rooms with exhibits relating to the working conditions and lives of the family's staff. Another former industrial center is Greenock, the birthplace of engineer James Watt, who made the Clyde navigable. It's also famous for being the final resting place of "Highland Mary," immortalized by Robbie Burns.
