Boglestone
Boglestone (named after the
Bogal Stone) is located around the top of the Clune Brae,
Port Glasgow,
Inverclyde,
Scotland. The area includes housing, but also serves as an important 'hub' for upper Port Glasgow, offering amenities such as education, shopping, health centres, and leisure.
The two
schools previously situated here were Boglestone Primary a non-denominational school, and
St Michael's a
Roman Catholic School. Due to the local council's education plans, Boglestone Primary has been demolished, with pupils transferred to other schools, including Highholm Primary, located near Port Glasgow
town centre.
Shops include a
Co-op supermarket,
newsagents, and
bakers, as well as
Ladbrokes and Haddows. A
health centre, and a
community centre that includes a
gym, are also situated here. The
library was recently closed by Inverclyde Council.
