Car parks at parks throughout East Renfrewshire have been closed to prevent people driving to them and ignoring the guidance to stay at home.

The parks, however, remain open to allow people to exercise.

East Renfrewshire Council took the decision to close the car parks following advice issued by the Scottish Government.

The council stressed that anyone visiting any of its public parks must comply with the rules set out by the government, which state that play equipment should not be used.

You should also adhere to the rules of social distancing and not gather in crowds.

Visitors to Rouken Glen Park are advised that the pavilion is currently closed to the public and is only accessible for disabled toilet facilities.

The car park at Whitelee Visitor Centre is also closed to the public until further notice.
