About Greenock
Greenock is a town in Inverclyde, Scotland, situated in the west central Lowlands and serves as the administrative centre for Inverclyde Council. Once a burgh in the historic county of Renfrewshire, it is part of a continuous urban area alongside Gourock to the west and Port Glasgow to the east, making it a key location for planning applications in the region.
