St Francis Church and Friary in Cumberland Street was the home of the Franciscan "Greyfriars" in Glasgow until the 1990's, when they relocated to the former St Luke's building in Ballater Street, renamed as the Church of Blessed John Duns Scotus.
The friars' presence in Scotland dates back to 1224, during the lifetime of the order's founder, St. Francis of Asissi.
They became established in Glasgow in 1476 at Greyfriars Wynd on the western side of High Street, opposite the University. This is detailed in my Cathedral Precinct page.

The Franciscan friars returned to post-Reformation Glasgow in October 1868, occupying the temporary brick building, shown left.

The first part of the present day complex to be built was the friary, designed in Gothic style by Gilbert Robert Blount of London. It was formally opened 11th July 1869 with a high mass, celebrated by Archbishop Charles Eyre of Glasgow. The mass was Mozart's No.12, performed with a choir and orchestra.
The first Superior following the return of the order to Glasgow was Very Rev. Emmanuel Kenners.

In the courtyard of the friary some of the stones of the original Franciscan monastery formed a mound for a cross. The remnants of the High Street buildings were scheduled to be demolished by the City Improvement Trust at the time.

St Francis Church, Baptistry, and Friary, Cumberland Street, Gorbals

St Francis Church was designed by Pugin & Pugin of Westminster in the Early Decorated Gothic style, with a façade featuring three lancet windows. It has no tower or spire in harmony with the austere rules of the Franciscan Order. The octaganonal Baptistry is situated between the Church and the Friary. Mr Peter Paul Pugin attended the ceremony for the laying of the corner-stone on 25th May 1880.
The church was formally opened on 1st June 1881 in the presence of Cardinal Manning and Archbishop Charles Eyre of Glasgow. The building was completed only as far as the chancel arch, leaving the area designated for the high altar unfinished until funds were available.

The script over the entrance of the church contains the motto of the order, “ Deus meus et omnia”, which translates as “My God and My All”. It also records that the Franciscans founded a community in Glasgow in 1476, and returned in the post-Reformation era in 1868.

In 1995-1996 St Francis Church was converted by Glasgow City Council into a Community Centre. The adjacent friary became sheltered housing at the same time. The work was skilfully carried out by Page & Park, Architects, retaining much of the character of the old building.
In 1998 the completed project received a commendation in the Urban Renewal category of the annual awards of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
The plaque at the entrance foyer of the centre, left, is displayed to celebrate the award.

The high altar at the northern end of the church has been preserved behind a woven screen, while new offices and an entrance foyer have been construced within the space at the southern end of the church.

The side altars have been preserved, again with protective screening to prevent any accidental damage.
The altar below is dedicated to St Patrick. the patron saint of Ireland, where many of the church's original parishioners hailed from.
The altar which was designed by Messrs. Pugin & Pugin of Westminster was solemnly inaugurated on 1st June 1890.

The fourteen stations of the cross, which were placed in niches within the stonework high above the congregation, are an interesting and beautiful feature of the church which thankfully have been retained.
The images at each of the stations were painted on metal panels with a gold foiled background. These panels were seven feet long and the paintings still have their original luminescence originating from the reflective qualities of the background. The example below shows the seventh station, 'Jesus falls a second time', still richly coloured after all this time.

The Franciscan frairs are still in the Gorbals, occupying the former St Luke's Church, Ballater Street, renamed after Blessed John Duns Scotus.

The friars at St Francis Church brought with them some relics of St Valentine from France when they came to Gorbals in 1868. The bones of the romantic saint are contained in a decorative casket on display at Blessed John Duns Scotus Church.

The drawing below is of the tower of St Ninian’s Established Church which was situated on the eastern side of Crown Street at the corner with Kidston Street. At the laying of the foundation stone on 14th October 1884, the church's first minister Rev. Mr Bryce mentioned a temporary iron structure known as Crown Church, in use during the construction of the new building. The architect of the church was James Ritchie. The foundation stone was laid by J. Nelson Cuthbertson, who also placed a hermetically sealed jar containing newspapers of the day and documents relating to the congregation.
The church building survived until the comprehensive redevelopment of the Gorbals in the 1970's.

Following the union of the Church of Scotland and the United Free Church in 1929 the congregation of St Ninian's moved to the nearby building of the Wynd Free Church, shown below, which became the Church of Scotland “quoad sacra” parish of St Ninian's Wynd in 1934.
Under threat of legal action, the Wynd congregation, which had resisted the union, were forced to vacate their red sandstone building under protest. Their minister, Rev. Peter Chapman accepted an offer to move to the former St Ninian's Parish Church, shown above.

---

The Wynd Free Church at the junction of Crown Street and Cathcart Road was built for an existing congregation in 1889.
The red sandstone church and associated Medical Mission were designed in a Romanesque style by William Gardner Rowan of the architectural practice, McKissack & Rowan.
The church building was formally opened on Wednesday 11th December 1889 with a service conducted by Rev A.A. Bonar. Its pastor, Rev. John Riddell, occupied his new pulpit for the first time on Sunday 15th December 1889. Mr Riddell had previously been minister of the Wynd congregation from 1868 until 1873 and resumed his charge in 1887 when the new church was being planned.

The history of the Wynd Church goes back to 1685, named after its situation between the Old and New Wynds, alleyways which connected Trongate to Bridgegate in the Merchant City. The Wynd Free Church dates from 1854 with Rev. Dugald McColl being the first minister.

Wynd Free Church, which became St Ninian's Wynd Church in 1934

The Medical Mission buildings, constructed at the same time as the church, were formally opened on 3rd December 1889 by Mr J. Campbell-White. The Mission provided professional care and advice to those whose family income was less than 20 shillings per week. It also gave basic medical training for students intending to go to the foreign missions.

The architectural competition for the design of Cunninghame Free Church at the corner of Ballater Street and Thistle Street produced two rival designs. The competition was won by brothers, Hugh and David Barclay. It was, however, the skilfully executed drawing of the unsuccessful entry by W.G. Rowan which was displayed at the annual exhibition of the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts of 1899.

The Barclay brothers' Cunninghame Free Church featured an unusual bell tower with angular elements emphasising light and shadow.
The church was gutted by fire in December 1977 and had to be immediately demolished.
This church had replaced the previous building which was sold to the Glasgow and South Western Railway for £4000 at the time when they were extending the railway track on the approaches to St Enoch Station.

Bell tower of Cunninghame Free Church

The memorial stone for the new church was laid on Saturday 28th May 1898 by Mr J. Cameron Corbett M.P. at a ceremony presided over by Rev. Alexander Simpson, the minister of the church.
Mr Simpson described how the congregation had originated as a Home Mission who moved into a building previously occupied by Chalmers Free Church in 1872, when it was about to be sold as a rag store. Mr Cunninghame, after whom the church was named, donated £1000 to enable the congregation to complete the purchase. The first minister of the earlier church was Rev. Alexander Andrew.

The building in Ballater Street, referred to above, was built as Chalmers Free Church to the designs of Alexander "Greek" Thomson in 1859. It has more of a similarity to his villas and terraces than to the better known Thomson churches of Glasgow.

Chalmers Free Church, Ballater Street, 1859

---

The symmetry of Thomson's composition was spoiled in 1870 / 1871 by the construction of a huge railway viaduct to the immediate west of the church, which required the removal of one of the side entrances. The line from St Enoch to Paisley, which cut through the Gorbals, opened on 1st January 1872. A detailed history of the development of the Gorbals Railways can be found here. The noise and vibration from the passing trains made the building less desirable as a place of public worship and the congregation of Chalmers Free Church relocated to a new church in Salisbury Street in 1871. Following the temporary occupation by the Cunninghame Mission, the building was used as commercial premises before it was demolished after a fire in 1971.
A history of the various premises occupied by the congregation of Chalmers Free Church including their final home in Pollokshaws Road can be found in the Laurieston, Gorbals page of this website.

St Bonaventure's Church at the eastern end of Caledonia Road was reconstructed from a factory in 1953 by Jack Coia of the celebrated partnership of Gillespie Kidd & Coia.
The building originated in 1878 as Buchanan Memorial Church, designed by John Honeyman. It closed as a place of worship in 1930 and was converted into factory premises. The original spire was deemed unsafe during Coia's 1953 remodelling and was replaced by a copper cap. The church was demolished in 1993.

St. Andrew's Suspension Bridge was designed by engineer Neil Robson and erected in 1855 to connect Hutchesontown with Glasgow Green. It replaced a ferry used by workers to get to their employment. The ironwork was cast by P & W McLellan at their Clutha Works in Kinning Park.

The United Co-operative Baking Society (UCBS) bakery in McNeil Street was a major employer in the area. It opened for business in 1887 with a number of additions and alterations taking place between 1889 and 1914 as the business expanded. By the time the bakery was demolished in 1973 the Co-op had developed a very large area of contiguous land encompassing McNeil Street, Ballater Street, Adelphi Street and Moffat Street.

The earliest UCBS bakery in Gorbals was situated in Coburg Street, Laurieston, which was leased by the Society from the beginning of 1869. The first goods were dispatched from the ramshackle outbuilding, shown left, on the morning of 26th January 1869.
It soon became clear that they would have to move more suitable accommodation and on 6th November 1869 a sub-committee was appointed to look out for a site.

In December 1869 the Society bought premises at Seaward Street, then known as St James Street, Kinning Park, which they fitted out as a bakery which opened for business in the beginning of May 1870.
By 1884 the relocated bakery had reached the limit of its capacity. By then the production of biscuits and pastries had been transferred to premises in Scotland Street, but the St James Street bakery could still not keep up with the increasing demand for bread.
A firm of local architects, Messrs Bruce & Hay, were asked to prepare a sketch plan for a new bakery on the St James Street site. Their submitted plans showed that the space available was not large enough to provide all the accommodation desired by the client.

A site was found at at McNeil Street, Hutchesontown which had some existing buildings on it which were of use to the Society. On 19th September 1885 it was intimated that the "Nursery Mills" in McNeil Street had been bought for £4,500 and Messrs Bruce & Hay were instructed to prepare plans of a state-of-the-art modern bakery.
A grand opening day was arranged for 21st May 1887, with Mr Alexander Fraser, president of the Society, declaring the premises open.

A more specialised bakery was situated in Adelphi Street along the riverside, operated by Messrs. McCall & Stephen as the Adelphi Biscuit Factory.
The bakery and factory were situated at the rear of the premises behind the office block. The most modern and best machinery was used to produce a range of about 150 different kinds of "biscuits, crackers, cracknels, rusks, fingers, nuts, and snaps". The bakery also produced cakes, buns and shortbread using six huge ovens, reputed to be the largest in Scotland.

The bakeries of Hutchesontown were supplied with specialised ingredients such as dried egg and powdered cream from Mullen's Riverside Works in Adelphi Street.

The St Mungo Halls at the corner of Moffat Street and Ballater Street were the “Co-operative Halls” of the Gorbals, built on vacant land near their huge bakery in McNeil Street. In 1902 the educational committee of the Society instructed local architects Bruce & Hay to prepare plans for five halls containing accommodation for 200 to 1,500 people. The plans also included three blocks of tenements fronting Ballater Street, with shops on the ground floor to be occupied by the Kinning Park Co-op Society. Work began in February 1904 but the halls were not completed until 1906.

In the early hours of 25th November 1981 the disused halls were destroyed by fire in what the Evening Times colloquially described as a “mystery blaze”.

Another major employer in the area were Messrs. Stewart & McDonald who had large wholesale warehouses and retail stores in Glasgow city centre. From 1889 they operated a six-storey factory at Rutherglen Road for the "extensive manufacture of ladies' mantles, children's dresses, men's shirts and slops, hats and caps and ready-made clothing".

Stewart & McDonald's Clothing Factory, Rutherglen Road

This multi-storey building, erected between 1816 and 1821, is now the oldest surviving iron-framed fireproof industrial building in Glasgow. Until recent years it was occupied as the 'Twomax' garment factory, which can be seen in the 1960's view (below) which shows the multi-bay roof structure of the replacement top level.
A history of this building and its place in Glasgow's manufacturing legacy is included in my Glasgow Commercial Buildings page.

The redevelopment of Hutchesontown in the 1960's & 1970's as part of a Comprehensive Development Area (CDA) was for the most part an abject failure after a very promising start in the late 1950's. The old tenement blocks were pulled down street-by-street and replaced with inferior quality housing that has since been mostly demolished. The area was later rebuilt with the much more attractive development of the "New Gorbals".

The first phase of Gorbals redevelopment was completed as early as 1958, around the same time as Castlemilk and other peripheral housing schemes were being established to create new homes for the soon to be displaced residents of the old tenements.
Hutchesontown 'Area A', consisted of similar house types to those to be initially built in the new schemes; 3 or 4 storey blocks providing houses with kitchenettes and interior bathrooms with hot and cold running water. As redevelopment progressed it became apparent that Gorbals would not have nearly as much land available as the outlying green field sites and the best alternative was seen as building upwards with multi-storey tower blocks.

Modern view of 1950's housing blocks of Hutchesontown 'Area A'

The Hutchesontown 'Area A' blocks were designed by Andrew Gardner of Glasgow Corporation under the supervison of the City Architect, Mr A.G. Jury. The development won a Saltire Society's award for good design in an announcement made on Christmas Day, 1959. Since then the houses have been renovated and well maintained over the intervening years. The surrounding streets have been landscaped to provide an attractive neighbourhood as shown in the aerial view above. Hutchesontown 'Area A' was a relatively small area of redevelopment bounded by Commercial Road shown to the left of the picture and Lawmoor Street to the right. This part of the street is now known as Ballater Place. The main road glimpsed at the top of the photograph is Ballater Street, with Old Rutherglen Road at the bottom.

The traditional tenement blocks on the eastern side of Lawmoor Street, facing Hutchesontown 'Area A', were demolished three years after the completion of the new flats. The photograph below shows the cleared site at Lawmoor Street in the foreground while the demolition of housing at Ballater Street was in progress. In the background the early stages of construction of the multi-storey blocks of Hutchesontown 'Area B' can be seen.

Hutchesontown 'Area B', completed in 1962, was the next phase of redevelopment. This expansion, known as 'The Riverside', introduced tower blocks to the area for the first time and also provided some low-rise split level maisonettes. Unlike the later failed schemes for multi-storey housing in Gorbals, the refurbished tower blocks are still standing. The architects of this phase were Robert Matthew, Johnson-Matthew & Partners (RMJM).
Hutchesontown 'Area B' was situated immediately north of 'Area A ' between Ballater Street and the Clyde, centred on four 17-storey tower blocks which were laid out at angle to the previous rigid Gorbals street plan.

Prior to the redevelopment of Gorbals, Cumberland Street was the main thoroughfare through Hutchesontown - lined with tenement blocks with numerous shops and pubs at street level.

In contrast to the earlier successes, Hutchesontown 'Area C' proved to be a planning and social disaster. The housing blocks were completed in 1965 with the Cumberland Arcade shopping centre being added in 1969. The shopping centre was surrounded by poorly designed low-rise housing.

The tower blocks of Queen Elizabeth Square in Hutchesontown 'Area C' were first occupied in 1963, completed in 1965, and swiftly demolished in September 1993. The blocks were designed by the renowned English architect, Sir Basil Spence, who was inspired by Le Corbusier’s housing developments in Marseilles. His ideas did not translate well into the Gorbals, where the wet and windy climate created severe dampness problems in the flats.

Hutchesontown 'Area D' was developed by the Scottish Special Housing Association. It originated in 1961 with 3 and 4 storey blocks similar to those of 'Area A'. Four 24 storey tower blocks were added by 1968, two of which were demolished in 2006. The area is now noted for the two surviving landmark towers situated in Caledonia Road facing the gatehouse of the Southern Necropolis. There were also three 8 storey blocks at Silverfir Court near the riverbank, which are still standing.

After the demolition of two of the multi-storey blocks in 2006 the site was redeveloped with low-rise housing following the semi-circular line of Oregon Street, as seen at the cleared site behind the remaining blocks, above.
The flats in this attractive development were first made available for occupation in April 2009.

The horrendous Hutchesontown 'Area E' consisted of two 24 storey tower blocks and twelve pre-fabricated deck access blocks assembled by Gilbert Ash (Scotland) Ltd in 1973. The damp ridden deck access blocks were deemed unfit for human habitation after only 8 years and lay empty and abandoned before they were demolished in 1987. The last vestiges of 'Hutchie E' finally disappeared when the tower blocks were flattened in July 2013.

Architect's elevation drawing of proposed Hutchesontown Library published in 1904

Hutchesontown Library in McNeil Street was built with funds provided to the city by Andrew Carnegie in 1901.
It was officially opened on 17th November 1906 by Baillie John Battersby.
Hutchesontown was the the final and the most decorative of James. R. Rhind's Glasgow libraries, built in the French Renaissance style, completely different from any of his earlier Baroque buildings. An illustrated guide to Scotland's Edwardian Renaissance Carnegie Libraries is featured in a dedicated page of this website.

Hutchesontown Library closed on 31st July, 1964 and was partially occupied as a day nursery before being occupied as offices by Gorbals Initiative in 1994. Its current use is as offices.

Gorbals Library and Real Learing Centre was built as a belated replacement for Hutchesontown Library, which closed in 1964 and Gorbals Library, Norfolk Street, which closed in 1986.
The new library opened in 2004, designed by CRGP architects to be a learning centre providing local people with free access to the internet and the opportunity to develop their IT skills.
