Old Baillieston, Garrowhill and Easterhouse

Rhona Wilson, formerly our in-house author and now marketing manager at Stenlake Publishing, revisits her hometown of Baillieston and its environs in what is one of our most popular Glasgow 'borderlands' titles. The book features a number of cracking tram photos, plus atmospheric pictures of Edwardian Baillieston with horses and carts, sheep being driven down Glasgow Road (an unimaginable idea nowadays) and children playing on the pavement. About half of the book is devoted to Baillieston, the rest being divided between Swinton, Garrowhill, Bargeddie, Mount Vernon and finally Easterhouse, shown when it was still a mining and canalside village.
