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.

  • A Summary of Childcare in the East End of Glasgow
    A summary of childcare in the east end of Glasgow Executive summary Background, aims and methods ‘Childcare and Nurture, Glasgow East’ (CHANGE) aims to grow childcare services that best support children and families in the local area, working in partnership with the local community. The work is led by Children in Scotland, with Glasgow City Council and is funded by the National Lottery Community Fund. The Glasgow Centre for Population Health (GCPH) is the evaluation partner. The CHANGE project area (Appendix 2) comprises three neighbourhoods: Calton & Bridgeton; Tollcross & West Shettleston; and Parkhead & Dalmarnock. Small parts of the Springboig & Barlanark, and Mount Vernon & East Shettleston neighbourhoods also sit within the CHANGE area. This report is the third in a series of monitoring reports that the GCPH has compiled to describe childcare provision and usage in the east of Glasgow as part of the wider evaluation of the CHANGE project. This report aims to: a) describe pre-school nursery provision in the CHANGE project area. b) summarise the use of pre-school nurseries in the CHANGE area in relation to different demographic dimensions (e.g. age, gender, ethnic group, asylum/refugee status, geography, and area-based deprivation) in comparison with Glasgow as a whole; and compare the characteristics of children with a nursery place to those on a waiting list. c) compare and summarise changes in pre-school nursery provision and use of services from the previous years (2018) report. Data were derived from the following sources: child nursery registrations at June 2019 from Early Learning and Childcare at Glasgow City Council; and population data at June 2018 from National Records of Scotland.

  • Old Mines and Mine Masters of the Monklands” British Mining No.45, NMRS, Pp.66-86
    BRITISH MINING No.45 MEMOIRS 1992 Skillen, B.S. 1992 “Old Mines and Mine Masters of the Monklands” British Mining No.45, NMRS, pp.66-86. Published by the THE NORTHERN MINE RESEARCH SOCIETY SHEFFIELD U.K. © N.M.R.S. & The Author(s) 1992. ISSN 0309-2199 BRITISH MINING No.45 OLD MINES AND MINES MASTERS OF THE MONKLANDS Brian S. Skillen SYNOPSIS The Monklands lie east of Glasgow, across economically worthwhile coal measures, which have been worked to a great extent. Additionally to coal it proved possible to work a good local ironstone. Mushet’s blackband ironstone proved the resource on which the Monklands rose to prosperity in the 19th century. A pot pourri of minerals was there to be worked and their exploitation may be traced back to the 17th century. Estate feuding provides the first clue to the early coal working of the Monklands. In 1616, Muirhead of Brydanhill was in dispute with Newlands of Kip ps. Such was the animosity of feeling, that the latter turned up at the tiny coal working at Brydanhill and together with his men smashed up Muirhead’s pit head.1 It is likely that Muirhead’s mine had answered purely local needs and certainly if mining did continue it was on this ephemeral basis, at least until the mid 18th century. The reasons are easy to find, fragile local markets that offered no encouragement to invest in mining and a lack of communications that stopped any hope of export. In any case the western markets were then answered by the many small coal pits about the Glasgow district, including satellite workings such as Barrachnie on the western extremity of Old Monkland Parish.
