Renfrew Airport was the domestic airport serving the city of Glasgow until it was decommissioned in 1966.
It was located in the Newmains area of Renfrew, approximately 2 kilometres east of the current airport which would later replace it. It consisted of a main terminal building and ancillary buildings, and a main runway which ran west south-west of the terminal.
