About Penilee
- Penilee's proximity to Glasgow Airport makes it one of the most conveniently located residential areas in Glasgow for frequent travellers. Glasgow Airport, which handles over eight million passengers a year, is one of the busiest airports in Scotland and serves destinations across Europe, North America, and beyond. The airport's rapid expansion in the post-war decades transformed the landscape of this part of the Clyde valley, and the communities of Penilee, Hillington, and Cardonald grew significantly as airport-related employment attracted workers to the area. The Braehead Shopping Centre, which opened in 1999 on a former industrial site on the south bank of the Clyde, is one of the largest retail destinations in Scotland and a major employer in the area.
