High Ruchill

High Ruchill

High Ruchill is an area of Ruchill in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. Unlike the rest of Ruchill was traditionally and much of the rest of the city, High Ruchill's dwellings are not of the tenemental property type but semi detached properties. Also dissimilar to the rest of Ruchill in that poverty and a high level of social problems were not a common feature of High Ruchill. The properties were built as council managed homes, but many have subsequently been bought by their tenants under "right to buy" agreements.
