This week is National Cemeteries Week! So we thought we’re share some of the history of the Southside’s Necropolis with you in the form of this wonderful paperback guide book.
In this corner of Glasgow rest architects, engineers, shipbuilders, musicians, millionaires, heroes and heroines of war together with victims of disease and disaster. A visit to the Souther Necropolis will introduce you to the broad spectrum of people who helped make Glasgow the second city of the empire.
This 79 page pocket book comes complete with a fold out map and illustrations by Adrian McMurchie as well as the history of 31 of the most incredible people buried in the Southern Necropolis.
You can buy the book from our online shop or from Stephen O’Neil in Shawlands or Sunshine No 1 in Mount Florida
