The traditional county of Renfrewshire covers a much larger region, including areas today administered as Inverclyde and East Renfrewshire. Traditional Renfrewshire also includes several areas annexed to and subsequently enveloped by neighbouring Glasgow in the 1920s. Renfrewshire is retained as a Lieutenancy area.
