About Garnethill

What are the main landmarks in Garnethill?

Public buildings crowd it. The Glasgow School of Art, St Aloysius Church and the Tenement House stand within the same few streets, with the Scottish Jewish Archives Centre and the Bust of Queen Victoria among them. Bath Street carries St Matthew's Blythswood and Elgin Place Congregational Church.

St Jude's Episcopal Church sits on West George Street, the John Ross Memorial Church For The Deaf on West Regent Street, and the Glasgow Central Station Museum a short walk off. The Museum of Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons Glasgow closes the count.

What is the history of Garnethill?

Garnethill's entry carries no start date. Garnethill reaches the record as a residential district of Glasgow rather than a settlement of its own, so the dates it can claim belong to the buildings raised on its streets. The Glasgow School of Art and St Aloysius Church carry most of that weight.

Bath Street holds two more in Elgin Place Congregational Church and St Matthew's Blythswood, while the Scottish Jewish Archives Centre and the Tenement House sit among the same blocks.

Where is Garnethill?
