Does anyone have any further Glasgow sites to add to the list or any links. I have had a good look through HG forums but it is that big now it is difficult to see if this topic has been fully covered.

Maybe it would be possible to produce such a map now?
Apparently the park / areas around the slope of Yorkhill Hospital was bombed / targeted during the war as there was significant Ack Ack gun installations and military establishments in this area.

I know there is a a fairly comprehensive account of the Clydebank Blitz by I McPhail giving detail of the raids over the burgh in March 1941. Is there any such books detailing events over Glasgow?
