Pollokshaws Burgh Hall
Pollokshaws Burgh Hall was designed in Scots Baronial style by architect Sir Robert Rowand Anderson who was commissioned by Sir John Stirling Maxwell.
The building opened in 1898 and has served many purposes since that time, including a spell as a "British restaurant" during WWII.
It is still in use as public halls today, under the care of The Pollokshaws Burgh Hall Trust which was established to ensure the future of the building. Link
There is a WWI War Memorial in the grounds, in front of the main door.
