The disused Park Quay[3] or Fulton's Quay (NS 47436 70692)[4] is located on the old Lands of Park, situated on the south bank of the River Clyde in the Parish of Inchinnan,[5] close to Newshot Island and the old Rashielee Quay. A slipway is also part of the infrastructure, giving access to the dock at low tide, both once served by roads running through the Park Estate from the south.[6] It was recorded as Fulton's Quay in 1830, the name of a previous owner of the Park Estate who may have built it prior to 1801.[7] A fixed light was installed at Park Quay in 1869.[8]
