TRACING GLASGOW'S IMPERIAL PAST IN KELVINGROVE PARK

  • Meeting point: Eastern entrance to Kelvingrove Park located at the intersection of Clifton Street and LaBelle Place (map)

Glasgow’s urban landscape was shaped by empire. This heritage trail explores sites within Kelvingrove Park that reflect the myriad ways Glasgow – its businesses, its institutions and its people – was implicated in chattel slavery, colonialism and imperialism. Traces of this past are largely invisible today, but by slow walking and close looking we can bring these ‘hidden’ histories into focus.

This event has been rescheduled to Saturday 21st October 10.30am to 12.30pm.

Meeting point: Eastern entrance to Kelvingrove Park located at the intersection of Clifton Street and LaBelle Place.
