A Matter of Fact
Giffnock is known for its historic connection to the sandstone quarrying industry.
The Giffnock Quarries, which operated from the 19th to the early 20th century, produced high-quality sandstone that was used in many of Glasgow’s iconic buildings, including the University of Glasgow and the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. This sandstone was prized for its durability and attractive color, and it played a significant role in shaping the architectural heritage of Glasgow. Today, Giffnock is a vibrant suburban area, but its quarrying past is still remembered as a key part of its history.
