The B773 was a short link road on the eastern side of Paisley Abbey. It started on the A737 Glasgow Road and headed southwest along Cotton Street to meet the A726 just before Abbey Bridge over the White Cart Water. Although the current route of Cotton Street is more-or-less in the same area, the exact route of the B773 no longer exists. Development to the east of Paisley Abbey has caused the majority of the road to be destroyed under building work.
The B773 did not last long. By 1932 the number had been reused elsewhere and later maps give the original route Class I status.
The 1922 MOT Road List defines this route as: Paisley (Cotton Street, Abbey Street (part) )
