Help name this old West End Street
Posted: Sat Mar 15, 2014 1:52 pm
Hi guys,
I'm trying to do a bit of research on the old 'Glasgow and West of Scotland College of Domestic Science' or Dough School building off Woodlands Road, which is currently the University of Glasgow's St Andrews Building on Eldon Street. The building phase first got underway in 1913, and before this there was a now forgotten street or right-of-way through the site between Eldon Street and Park Avenue. This can be seen by looking at the following Ordnance Survey map from 1910:

Does anybody know the name of this street?
A more recent scene of the same location from 1984, can be seen in the link below and was taken from outside the present Old Schoolhouse pub (recently renamed from The Primary'). The Old street would have ran behind the tenements in the photo (tenements also appear north of the red highlighted line on the map), and is presently situated along the line of the St Andrews Building.

Any ideas?
