Located just slightly to the south of Loch Lomand sits the former industrial town of Alexandria. Surrounded by spectacular scenery Alexandria inhabits the area just next to the River Leven and is only 3 miles away from Dumbarton. The town has come a long way from its roots when it developed from just a single grocery shop in the eighteen hundreds but has since become a flourishing industrial town specialising in textiles and printing. In addition to this a large portion of the industry in Alexandria was due to the Argyll Motor Works which was one of the largest car production plants in Europe from 1905 until 1913. Interestingly, this factory was also utilised in the second world war to produce torpedoes! You can still visit the factory today as it has been transformed into a motoring museum.
The town is bustling with shops and plenty of places to eat. If you venture a couple of miles to the north you will find Loch Lomond Shores which hosts a variety of places to eat, drink and shop. The town now has a strong whisky distilling industry and with close rail links to Glasgow it seemed the perfect place to set up Hog Roast Alexandria!
