The Majestic McLennan Arch: A Historical Marvel in Glasgow

Getting There

• Walking

  If you are in the South Side neighborhood, begin your journey by heading towards the River Clyde. From Pollok Park, you can exit the park at the Pollokshaws Road exit and walk north until you reach the intersection with Gorbals Street. Turn left onto Gorbals Street and continue until you reach the roundabout. From there, follow the signs towards Glasgow Green. As you approach Glasgow Green, keep an eye out for the McLennan Arch, which is located at Glasgow Green, Saltmarket, G1 5JZ.

• Public Transport - Bus

  For those starting further south in the South Side, you can catch a bus heading north towards the city center. Use the First Bus service; routes 34 or 36 frequently run from areas like Shawlands or Battlefield. Board the bus and ask the driver for a stop near Glasgow Green. Once you alight, walk towards the green space, and you will see the McLennan Arch as you approach the park.

• Public Transport - Subway

  If you prefer the subway, head to the nearest subway station in the South Side, which is either at Shawlands or Pollokshields East. Take the Subway towards Buchanan Street (a short journey). Once you arrive at Buchanan Street, exit the station and walk down towards the river, following the signs for the Clyde. Cross over the river using the nearby pedestrian bridge, and you will find yourself at Glasgow Green, where McLennan Arch is located.
