Bob Law: Blog – Make The Most of Autumn in Glasgow

Autumn In Leafy Jordanhill. Glasgow

We may be living through trying times at the moment but getting out in nature always helps, even if it’s just somewhere local. For me Glasgow’s public parks, in various locations, offer great views across the city.

Pollok Pavement

Many of the parks started out as grand estates often situated on hill tops. Some are popular and well known, others, like Pollok’s Househill Park, which runs along Barrhead Road past Crookston to the Hurlet, are only known to locals. These whilst less frequented are well worth a visit.

Some of them have car parks or it is usually possible to park unobtrusively in a side street nearby.  Once the Coronavirus pandemic has passed  you could  take a bus or train.

During Autumn the trees are fantastic, displaying a range of colours that will brighten up even the dullest of October days.

 

Hope you enjoy this small selection of views you may not have seen before.
