I was in Cranhill during the 70's as a small child. I was taken to Easterhouse often to the pool and to the shopping centre. It was a very rough area but there was some good people in it. I was back there in 2019 and was at the new library and saw that the pool had been converted a little. The shopping centre was exactly how I remembered it in the 70's although with less shops open. Nice to see that some of the area has been redeveloped.
I seen this by chance, lots of memories Lochend Road, where I grew up, walking up to St Clare’s primary with the worst hailstorm weather, Wearing a skirt and socks I should add 😅 ohh my legs got a beating 😊 St Leonard’s Sec School, lol cheers for the memories ❤
Thanks for sharing..! I moved out in 1976 to Kilwinning, had loads of family In easterhouse at one time . Brought back loads of memories of when I used to go back up . Thanks again big chap …! 👍
Enjoyed that my friend. I was brought up in Easterhouse in the 60s/ 70s. I agree that there were hard times then but as you say lots of good people. Puts me in the mood for a wee run there myself. Unfotunately my old street no longer exists the old closes seem to have bitten the dust! Thank you. A wee subscribe and a like well earned. Cheers
Thakyou for posting , lived in the tenement that was in front of the bus terminal ( 136 Lockdochart ) as a kid before moving to England . Seeing this has brought a lot of good memories back , nice one
I used to live in Easterhouse in 60/70s and i moved to Manchester in 1974 it shows how different it looks now , still nothing there it has not changed in terms of things to do, empty fields , my late mother said she had really good neighbours when we lived there
I lived on Lochdochart Rd in the 1980s (that's my block on the right at 14:49 or straight in front of you at 17:01). Big changes since then. It was all tenement closes then. No shops, so we had to go out to Billy's van on Dalilea Drive.
U never mentioned a P Ferris, the Welsh clan when driving out of Blackhill, then driving down Provanmill Rd, no mention of Thompson etc,….Well done for not ‘clout chasing’ ✌️
The church on the Edinburgh Road is where I was christened. I also went to Sunday School there for a while. In the late 70s I used to have to sign on at the brew up in Easterhouse. I saw the shopping centre being built. I sometimes went to the swimming baths and occasionally went into the community centre. I painted the Festy mural for the Easterhouse festival one year. There’s a bit of an amusing but embarrassing tale about that. 😄😳
I'm from London and it doesn't look anywhere near as bad or scary as the tower blocks and massive concrete estates you see in London. Thanks for the video. London is a 3rd world shi#hole now anyway. Cheers.
@@ROUTEPLANNERPAUL I don't know Glasgow but all the glaswegians I've met have been down to earth. Not like so many snotty nosed middle class soft southerners. Cheers.
Years ago was a different story for Glasgow,,, we also had the tower blocks ,, every housing estate (scheme) had gangs fighting every week.. areas were separated you knew you couldn't go there but iam glad Morden days have changed all that...there is a lot of Londoners living in Glasgow... iam iin Heathrow at moment.. heading back home tomorrow vid coming up shortly...
Unbelievable they don't develop all that land it's not as if its green belt, my daughter and her family have been in homeless accommodation for over a year now. Have they also stopped cleaning the drains lol even outside the buywell big puddles
Forgot to mention,I remember when Frankie Vaughn paid a visit, weapons amnesty at westerhouse road,most of the knives were kids taken from their kitchens,thanks for the video good when you tell us where we are.
I was a bit young for frankie Vaughan but I remember the family talking about it .... just goes to show you the blade culture back then.. easterhouse has changed alot ..iam glad you enjoyed it .... sure I'll get that vid up for you Gérard

Mid 90’s, Easterhouse, Ballieston, Cranhill etc were smack central !. Bad habits etc but if nothing else it’s a bit of nostalgia 💯✌️🙏🏻🍻
