When i first got married, i lived in 1082 gallowgate ( two different houses). My granny was born 359 gallowgate (next to sydney st) and was brought up in 636 gallowgate (next to wee johnnies barbers) My other granny lived in 505 gallowgate (just past bellgrove st, where mccutcheon's chemist was)and my granda stayed in 805 gallowgate (the patterson building). It's all changed now, but the keelies site won't let us forget the way it was.

I've seen a picture of bellgrove, looking up the gallowgate with the chemist and other shops visible, i first saw it in a shop window in partick, but it wasn't for sale, it was in the window of nobles amusements, it's also in a book but i can't remember which one, sorry.

And i'm just round the corner in the bellgrove st. That is the picture i was talking about. there was a pub there (between the second and third canopy, i think) called the "white horse" and according to a map i have, 505 was the first close past the pub, although she lived there before i was born.
