  • Queen's Park, covering 60 hectares (148 acres) was created in the mid-19th century, designed by the renowned landscape architect Sir Joseph Paxton with design modification by city architect, John Carrick.
    It is third oldest park in Glasgow
    Given camp Hill's commanding views over much of the surrounding countryside. The area now Queens Park was originally part of the lands of Longside which belonged to the Maxwell's of Pollok. By the late 17th century, the western part had been sold off to form Camphill farm which passed through several generations of the Crawford family before being sold in 1799 to Robert Thomson, a manufacturer in Glasgow, who built Camphill house. His son Robert Thomson bought the adjoining Pathhead farm from Sir James Maxwell of Pollok in 1834 and his grandson Neale Thomson sold it for 30,000 pound to the Glasgow corporation in 1857 for the purpose of forming Glasgow's third public park.
    The area around Queens 's Park, Glasgow is generally reasonably. I would consider this area one of the safer parts of Glasgow. The area is predominantly old tenement style buildings.
