Plans to deliver a new public space at the site where the historic Brown Institute once stood in Renfrew have been formally put forward by Renfrewshire Council.

Hirst Landscape Architects, the agent working on behalf of the local authority, has submitted an application for planning permission for the proposal.
If given the green light, the facility is expected to include pathways, seating and a mix of trees and plants as well as architectural features from the landmark.
A design and access statement explained: "The project aims to honour the legacy of the Brown Institute and provide a vibrant area for the community.
