Deaconsbank history

The name Deaconsbank is taken from the former nearby Deacons Bank Farm beside the Auldhouse Burn which flows through what is now the modern day Rouken Glen park. During World War II, the land beside DeaconsBank and Patterton was used as a prisoner-of-war camp. Camp remains are now in the care of Glasgow City Council who have made provision for the enhancement and maintenance of the objects.
