Re: Clyde Iron Works and Clyde Rows

Thanks. I did get to those tags from the "Insert Image" button on your "Post a Reply" toolbar, and realized I was supposed to insert my image between them, but couldn't work out how to get the image there. The problem is I don't store my pics on any host site, so I have no URL to...

Re: Clyde Iron Works and Clyde Rows

I don't know anything about the history of those terraces at Farme Cross, but I've passed by them countless times over the years and can say one thing for sure: they're not former miners' rows! Believe me, the people who lived in miners' rows would have seen those Rutherglen terraces as the ultimate...

Re: Clyde Iron Works and Clyde Rows

Just to say that, after a long time searching, I got hold of a 1920s street map of the Carmyle/Tollcross/Auchenshuggle area which shows Clyde Rows, with its streets named. If anyone's interested, copies could be made available.

Re: Clyde Iron Works and Clyde Rows

Coleraine: I've sent a private message to you - hope it gets to you - giving you my e-mail address and inviting you to contact me. I have a good deal of information on Clyde Rows to pass on, including lists of householders in the last years of the rows - around 1929 - which I got through examining O...

Clyde Iron Works and Clyde Rows

Walking along the London Road to work in the mornings, and back home in the evenings, I've seen for some time now that site development work is being carried out on the site of the old ironworkers' rows, across the road from Fullarton Filling Station, at Auchenshuggle. I think the site is going to b...

Glasgow Murder Mysteries

If my memory serves me correctly, it was in November 1993 that the body of a man called Anthony Innes was discovered in his flat in a Dalmarnock tower block. I believe he had been beaten to death, but a weapon (a knife?) might also have been used. I really can't remember. All that was said about Mr ...

Forgotten Pubs

I was taken by surprise a few weeks ago when I found that L'Attache and Burns Tavern, which until recently were on the corner of Waterloo Street and Wellington Street, had been demolished. Burns had been closed for a few years, and L'Attache might as well have been for all the custom it seemed to be...
