The city of Glasgow was, quite literally, built on its geology – it may even have been named after one of its rocky features.

In 2013 the British Geological Survey Quarrying and building stone conducted a Geodiversity Audit of Sandstones in the Carboniferous sedimentary rocks in the Glasgow the City of Glasgow for Glasgow City area were commonly quarried for Council to identify and describe the building stone.

Executive Summary The City of Glasgow has a long tradition in the pursuit of a high quality built environment and public realm, continuing to the present day. This strategy represents the next steps in this tradition by setting out how open space should be planned, created, enhanced and managed in order to meet the priorities for Glasgow for the 21st century. This is not just an open space strategy. It is a cross‐cutting vision for delivering a high quality environment that supports economic vitality, improves the health of Glasgow’s residents, provides opportunities for low carbon movement, builds resilience to climate change, supports ecological networks and encourages community cohesion. This is because, when planned well, open space can provide multiple functions that deliver numerous social, economic and environmental benefits. Realising these benefits should be undertaken in a way that is tailored to the needs of the City. As such, this strategy examines the priorities Glasgow has set out and identifies six cross‐cutting strategic priority themes for how open space can contribute to meeting them.
