Malcolm Group are proposing an extension to the Donald Malcolm Heritage Centre in Linwood, East Renfrewshire

The logistics company has appointed ECD Architects for the project, comprising a blue insulated composite extension to match the existing building.

Located at the group head office in Paisley the museum, named after the company founder, opened in 2019 at a cost of £2m and houses a collection of vehicles used throughout the company's 60-year history.

New additions will include a reception area, atrium and main entrance with parking bays for a further four historic vehicles.

The Donald Malcolm Heritage Centre is not open to the public but requests can be made to visit.

I think I must have had a Bobby Ewing moment and woken up in the 80s ...

Sounds like a case of too much money and not knowing what to do with it.

'at a cost of £2m and houses a collection of vehicles..' - a big expensive garage then!

Linwood isn't in East Renfrewshire. The article also says the centre is both in Linwood and Paisley, which one is it?
