About Cowcaddens
Cowcaddens is very close to the city centre and is bordered by Garnethill to the south-west and old Townhead to the east. It was originally a village and became an industrious and thriving part of the expanding Glasgow. By the 1880s, the area was becoming a slum district with the highest level of infant mortality (190 per thousand births) in the city, a figure which was three times that of the West End.
