About Mosspark
Where to stay in Mosspark
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Ashkirk Drive and the streets around Mosspark Parish Church and Hall set the tone here: this is a district of houses on the south side of the River Clyde, with no hotel trade of its own. Nobody books a room here. Visitors who want Mosspark within reach take a central Glasgow bed and come out over the River Clyde for the afternoon, which is a short enough errand that the district works better as a stop than as a base.
The church is the fixed point.
About Mosspark

One building carries the list. Mosspark Parish Church and Hall stands at number 167 Ashkirk Drive, and beyond it the district offers a visitor no museum, no monument and no heritage street to walk. Glasgow keeps those elsewhere.
What the record ties to Mosspark is a church, a hall and the residential grid laid around them on the south side of the River Clyde.
What is the history of Mosspark?
No document dates Mosspark's beginning. Its documented past is the city's. The record gives it as one of the districts into which Glasgow divides its ground south of the River Clyde, so the dates that matter here were written for the city rather than for these streets.
Mosspark Parish Church and Hall on Ashkirk Drive is the one dated building the registers attach to the area, and around it the ordinary residential fabric of a Scottish city fills the ground.
