“This is the fascinating story of Blythswood Hill and of the creation of Glasgow’s ‘New Town of Blythswood’. It’s prime developer was William Harley - They Great Improver. With his wife Jane Laird he laid out in splendid style central Blythswood and Garnethill, and crowned it with Blythswood Square. He set out pleasure gardens, built the first indoor public baths in Scotland and pioneered the first hygienic dairy in Europe….

Enjoy the story and colour of its streets, people, commerce and arts.”
