The Gorbals on the south bank of the River Clyde is one of Glasgow’s best known areas that has a rich history.
During its peak in the 1930s, the Gorbals had an estimated 90,000 residents but the area looks very different today with many of the high rise blocks which once dominated the skyline no longer standing.
Many famous Glaswegian faces were born and brought up in the Gorbals with the area having produced footballers, boxers and philanthropists.
