"Grow45: those look suspiciously like hangars on the Abbotsinch Road?
Compare with Luftwaffe photo of Grangemouth, labelled 'A'.

Interesting - I had assumed they were modern but they look in exactly the right position. I'll maybe take a look next time I am passing.

"Just had a look at Google Earth, and there doesn`t seem to be much evidence of an airfield any more at Renfrew."

Is the long straight stretch of the M8 not on the line of the old runway. Not immediately obvious as part of an airfield but interesting as a reminder of where it was.
