2. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION 2.1 Site location Dawn Developments Ltd/467374673/Queen’s Quay Masterplan EIA/KD 04/01/2012 Major Mixed Use Development, Queen's Quay, Clydebank EIA Scoping Report The Development site is situated in the town of Clydebank on the north bank of the River Clyde. The site is centred on OS Grid reference NS 4950 6990 (see Figure 1, Appendix B). The site is bounded by the River Clyde to the south-west; Queen’s Quay Enterprise and Learning District/ Queen’s Gate residential development to the south-east; undeveloped land and light industry/ commercial properties along Cable Depot Road to the north; and the A814 Glasgow Road/ residential, commercial and civic properties along Dumbarton Road to the northeast and east. The site is generally flat but there is a gentle gradient (typically falling south-east to northwest) from Dumbarton Road down towards the River Clyde. Ground levels range between 8.7m above ordnance datum (AOD) (in the north-eastern corner of the site at the Dumbarton Road boundary) and 4.5m AOD (at the quayside). The majority of the site, north-west of the Queen’s Dock, is lower than 5.7m AOD. The site is underlain by made ground deposited in the 19 th century during the original development of the greenfield site to raise the existing ground level and accommodate the dock infrastructure. The natural drift deposits below the made ground comprise alluvium overlying glacial till. The bedrock is mudstone, believed to be part of the Lawmuir Formation (sandstones and mudstones with thin bands of limestone and coal measures). Plate 1: Queen’s Quay cleared site looking north-west The majority of the Development site has been cleared and has been predominantly vacant over the past 10 years. Two major features within the site are the Queen’s Quay Page 5 Final for Issue

A purpose-built education centre was opened at the base of the crane in June 2011. 2.2 Site history Historical mapping suggests that the Development site was used for agricultural pasture until it was first developed in 1871 by J & G Thomson as a shipbuilding and engineering yard. The yard was bought by John Brown and Co. in 1899 and became one of the most important shipyards on the Clyde. Famous ships associated with the yard include the Lusitania, Aquitania, the Royal Yacht Britannia and the Queen Elizabeth the 2 nd . The shipyard operated at the Queen’s Quay site up until its closure in the 1970s. Plate 2: John Brown’s Shipyard Plate 3: The Queen Elizabeth II at Clydebank The shipyard was purchased by Marathon Manufacturing in 1972 and was used for the manufacture of oil drilling rigs and platforms. The site was subsequently bought by UiE/Kvaerner in 1980 and continued to manufacture oil rigs until 1999. Page 6 Final for Issue
