Architectural detail ‘Moray Place’ DRS/2006/3 STRATHBUNGO conservationareaappraisal HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT Early History Early maps indicate the emergence of ‘Marchtown’, now called Strathbungo, in the early 18th-Century. The area had been feued out from the lands of Titwood owned by Sir John Maxwell of Nether Pollok. The original village sat at the intersection of Pollokshaws Road and another artery which ran from east to west approximately on the alignment of Allison Street/Nithsdale Street. The southwest quarter was named South Cameron and the northern part North Cameron. Based mainly on crofting and mining, the village was named Marchtown in recognition of its position between the boundaries or ‘Marches’ of the counties of Lanark and Renfrew. Present day “March Street“ recalls this early phase of development. By the end of the 18th Century, weaving had become the main occupation of the 35 families living in the village at that time. 1 © and data base right. Crown copyright and Landmark Information Group Ltd.(All rights reserved 2006) 19th Century By 1850 other trades and crafts had replaced mining and buildings of two storeys known as ‘lands’ were being constructed to house cartwrights, cabinetmakers, grocers, gardeners and blacksmiths. In 1859, 1-10 Moray Place was built as the forerunner of Regents Park - the urban village planned by Alexander’Greek’ Thomson. In the following two decades, the bulk of the suburb emerged as long lines of Georgian- style terraces, known as ‘squares’ with entrances off Pollokshaws Road. Tenements to Pollokshaws Road were also constructed as part of the same scheme. The private estate was linked to the city by the Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway with the opening of Strathbungo station in 1877. 2 © and data base right. Crown copyright and Landmark Information Group Ltd.(All rights reserved 2006) 4/DRS/2006 STRATHBUNGO conservationareaappraisal The radial network of roads to the northeast of the Conservation Area emerged later in the 19th Century. At that time, tenements and shops were constructed along Nithsdale Drive, Nithsdale Street and Nithsdale Road including the distinctive curved form of Salisbury Quadrant which was designed by Thomson’s office. The tenements and shops around Nithsdale Road, some also designed by Thomson’s office, were developed in the 1870’s. 20th Century In the period from 1930–50, the popularity and prestige of Strathbungo suffered a decline and, as a result, property values were depressed. This continued to a degree into the early 1970’s when the problems of excessive subdivision and accompanying parking and traffic problems led to a tendency 3 © and data base right. Crown copyright and Landmark Information Group Ltd.(All rights reserved 2006) for short-term residency with associated maintenance problems. The designation of the Conservation Area in 1973 and the cancellation of a planned motorway link which previously blighted the area, helped rejuvenate the oldest properties recreating the upmarket residential area of the original concept. Today, Strathbungo is a burgeoning community with a 10.4% increase in its Ward population since 1991. Survey results from 1998 indicate a total of 582 households within the boundaries of the Conservation Area which resulted in a total population of 1377 persons. 1. Historical map circa 1860 2.

The tenements on the southeast side of Pollokshaws Road lie within the Crosshill Conservation Area. The southwest boundary is defined by building age and style. It includes tenements and terraces which appear on the 1895 map, but excludes all later development to the south west. Building age and style also defines the north eastern boundary. Street Pattern The Conservation Area consists of two distinct areas. The 19th Century suburb is set out in a regular grid of long terraces known as ‘squares’ running in a northwest to southeast direction. Narrow front streets and even narrower rear 1 lanes are interwoven into the grid to create an intimate scale.

Each profile provides indicators for a range of health outcomes (e.g. life expectancy, mortality, hospitalisation) and health determinants (e.g. smoking levels, breastfeeding, income, employment, crime, education). These profiles build on the success of both the 2004 community health profiles published by NHS Health Scotland (www.scotpho.org.uk/communityprofiles), and of the ‘Let Glasgow Flourish’ report published by GCPH in April 2006 (www.gcph.co.uk/content/view/17/34/).

  • Parishes and Congregations: Names No Longer in Use
    S E C T I O N 9 A Parishes and Congregations: names no longer in use The following list updates and corrects the ‘Index of Discontinued Parish and Congregational Names’ in the previous online section of the Year Book. As before, it lists the parishes of the Church of Scotland and the congregations of the United Presbyterian Church (and its constituent denominations), the Free Church (1843–1900) and the United Free Church (1900–29) whose names have completely disappeared, largely as a consequence of union. This list is not intended to be ‘a comprehensive guide to readjustment in the Church of Scotland’. Its purpose is to assist those who are trying to identify the present-day successor of a former parish or congregation whose name is now wholly out of use and which can therefore no longer be easily traced. Where the former name has not disappeared completely, and the whereabouts of the former parish or congregation may therefore be easily established by reference to the name of some existing parish, the former name has not been included in this list. Present-day names, in the right-hand column of this list, may be found in the ‘Index of Parishes and Places’ near the end of the book. The following examples will illustrate some of the criteria used to determine whether a name should be included or not: • Where all the former congregations in a town have been united into one, as in the case of Melrose or Selkirk, the names of these former congregations have not been included; but in the case of towns with more than one congregation, such as Galashiels or Hawick, the names of the various constituent congregations are listed.

In this paper, we present an exploratory case study of UA practice on the Southside of Glasgow, UK that traced the emergence and development of four UA projects. Data from the four projects revealed a diversity of practices, including temporary gardening projects organised by local volunteers, a community and market garden operated by a charity, a food shop and vegetable distribution service run by a social enterprise, and a permanent growing space for charities and schools provided by local government. UA practitioners in Glasgow have sought to re-purpose vacant and derelict land, build social cohesion, contribute to environmental and food sustainability and provide participation space for marginalised groups. Reflecting on future avenues for research on UA in Glasgow, we have identified two broad policy pathways that are emerging both at the local level and through national legislation in Scotland to harness local urban food growing and support UA.
