Scotstounhill

Scotstounhill () is a small area situated in western Glasgow, between south Knightswood and Scotstoun. Housing is mainly in a terraced or villa style, although several high rise flats (also known as tower blocks) can be found in the area (originally six at Kingsway Court, two were demolished in the 2010s and the others renovated). These were built near to the site of the Scotstoun House mansion. Scotstounhill contains a noted bowling club, and is served by Scotstounhill railway station which has frequent services to and from the city centre. It also contains Knightswood Shopping Centre in the area with several large shops such as Tesco.

Yoker

Yoker (Scottish Gaelic: An Eochair) is an area of Glasgow, Scotland, located on the northern bank of the Clyde east of Clydebank, 5 miles (8 kilometres) west of the city centre. The name is an Anglicisation of the Scottish Gaelic Eochair meaning a river bank. From the fourteenth century, the Renfrew Ferry has linked Yoker with Renfrew on the south bank of the river. The shipbuilding industry drove the growth of the district in the 19th century; this has since declined, although the nearby Yarrows shipyard, now owned by BAE Systems, is still in operation. Motor vehicles and tramcars were also manufactured in Yoker, which is now an operations centre for the North Clyde Line, part of Glasgow's suburban rail network. Yoker railway station has services on the North Clyde and Argyle Lines. Several buses travel along Dumbarton Road, the main thoroughfare between Glasgow and Clydebank which runs parallel to the river. A road bridge at the ferry crossing point was constructed in 2024, providing easier access to the retail and leisure facilities at Braehead. The TV comedy series Limmy's Show featured a sketch in which perpetually stoned Dee Dee Durie travelled to Yoker on a whim, finding the experience an exciting and terrifying adventure rather than a mundane bus journey.
