I go to Glasgow for the first time in September, thank you for the walk around the city🙂
I’m thinking of moving to Shawlands and was so pleased to come across your video, thank you!
My gran use to live here and our treat was going to the Woolworth’s in the early 90’s
Aw nice
That took me back, I used to go to Woolworths when I was younger and my mother used to be the cook in Finlay’s about 25 years ago. I used to drink in the Granary and the Jean Armour, happy days…
I used to nick from Woolworths.........got thrown out no end of times 😂😂😂😂😂
Sorry, a few inaccuracies. I was born and grew up in Minard Road 78 years ago.
The Shed was a dance and reception suite called 'The Marlborough' built and run by Reids the Bakers in the 1920s. It was a very fashionable place for weddings and dinner dances right up to the 1970s.
Thanks for the info!
Did you know my Grandparents or my father Norman. George and Mary Jeffray lived at 75 Minard Rd from mid 1930s to 1979 or my Dad Michael (Mike)?
God's Country anywhere Southside, just saying from Glasgow 😎 🇬🇧 👍
Walked up Minard road to Kilmarnock road from school every day in the 1970’s. You passed my bus stop ! I left Scotland in 1982. This was fun to watch. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane.
Worked for a Scottish company in Australia for a few years and visited Glasgow on business twice. Loved the city and the great people who live there. One of my favourite cities in the world.
This is our old neighborhood before we moved to Kilwinning. Used to go to a marketplace in Pollack shaws. There were some great inexpensive little shops and a few restaurants. A lot of the shops are different now. We used to feed the ducks and squirrels at the little pond in that area. Thank you for posting our old neighborhood.
thanks, you might like the Glasgow walks I done also at ua-cam.com/play/PL8KyHs09AylNZewPpmjyv89JEtTqk4bZI.html
My old stomping ground 😊😊😊.
I am a veteran of Shawlands Academy.
The now closed Tusk nightclub and Waverley deserve a mention.
I lived in Deanston Drive and worked in a solicitor's office on Kilmarnock Road, but moved away over twenty years ago. I remember the hotel in the shopping centre and Woollies. Thanks for filming this video. It kinda of gave me a nostalgic trip remembering my old haunts, my stories of living there. I know there will be new stories for the people who live there now. It's a bit more than five mins from city centre. Best wishes
Brung ba ck memories first job saturday job before left school love all the shops spent all my money there X

thank you for the walk around the city🙂
I had a shot for every time you said the word “wee” 😳🤯😨
I was married in the Shed when it was known as Marlborough House. Who would boast about being married in The Shed ?
Nice one !
My old haunting ground. The DUNE Castle.
Doune Castle !
Thank you for this indepth look at Shawlands. I always wondered what kind of shops were on that high level bit on Kilmarnock Rd. I know Shawlands from passing through it to go to work at the NSB. Long time ago. I used to meet friends on Shawlands Cross and we'd do some of the pubs. There used to be a pub on the left-hand side on Pollockshaws Road just past the cross. Can't remember the name of it.
Glad you enjoyed!
Samual Dow's?
I live in Somerset but used to live in Shawlands in' the Glesga'.
Fantastic visual account!
Er... Whit happened tae O'Neills?
Glad that Finlays' seemed to survive though. I miss my ain wee place dearly. Hello to Sid's Barbers and Ramey!
thanks, check out the Glasgow videos here ua-cam.com/play/PL8KyHs09AylNZewPpmjyv89JEtTqk4bZI.html
The Shed used to be the Plaza Dance Hall in the 60's, was more ballroom than anything else.
thanks for info, its opening again at weekend .
No it wasn't. The plaza was at Eglinton toll.
Hi Kevin, the buildings on the other side of the road are really nice, the road is very good for restaurants, bars and shops I prefer that to modern shopping centres if you’ve been in one you’ve been in them all , all the shops are the same, I bet the weatherspoons is a popular bar with students cheap food and beer Glasgow has some excellent old buildings, nice video Kevin
Thanks very much.
Good video Kevin shawlands is just as good as byres road in the West end
Must say mate as an auusie hearing you say todays hot at 20 deg got me laughing
Lol
born and bred in the shaws
Were you related to Don Beattie.
Lived in tantallan road 1969
Wetherspoons closing this month, the whole shopping centre being demolished, think it is being replaced with more overpriced generic so called luxury flats. Ugh!
Such a shame to demolish that ugly shopping centre
And pollock
sHAWS, YA BASS
No far from gorbals govanhill rutherglen hamden kings park

The Shed used to.be The Plaza Ballroom in the Swinging sixties !! Though the Barrowland and Locarno, were more popular back then.
Thanks for info didn't know that.
Ah The Barrowland ballroom where 'Bible John' used to dance.....
No it didn’t, two totally different places, the plaza was at Eglinton toll not in Shawlands.
Wrong ! The Plaza was down at Eglinton Toll 😉😉
