About Dargavel Village

Dargavel Village is a multi-million pound development being built on the former Royal Ordnance Factory site in Bishopton, close to Glasgow.

Preparing the land

Before a site can be developed, the land must be prepared and remediated by our team of experienced, environmental specialists.

Since work began over ten years ago, we have invested in the local infrastructure, improving existing roads and drainage systems, building new roads, creating new green community spaces and increasing parking areas.

Protecting the environment

Protecting the site’s existing natural habitats is a priority and that's why we work closely with Scottish Natural Heritage.
