Paisley

The cross-shaped burgh of Paisley (PASLAY) on the White Cart River, with its 12th-century abbey, dominates this extract. To the right of the abbey can be seen the Place of Paisley, within a walled enclosure, the residence of the Commendator. Around it are numerous small settlements extending as far east as Cardonald (Kardonald), now a suburb of Glasgow.
