About Pollokshaws

Pollokshaws is situated in the south of Glasgow, some 3 miles from the city centre.  The area has a long history as an independent, vibrant and proud Burgh based formerly on a textile industry.

The new 'Shaws that you see today is far removed from the historical thriving community of small shops and other businesses.
