Garthamlock

Garthamlock

Garthamlock is a suburb in the north-east of the Scottish city of Glasgow. It is situated north of the River Clyde and south of the river Kelvin. Garthamlock was developed from the early 1950's from farm land when the City of Glasgow expanded after WWII. The area now has a mix of local authority housing an private stock. Easterhouse is to the east of Garthamlock and Hogganfield to the west.

The Glasgow Fort shopping centre was built to the east of Garthamlock, partly on a disused quarry and partly on the grounds of Provan Hall House and Park (Easterhouse).
