About Drumchapel
- Drumchapel was one of four large peripheral housing schemes — along with Castlemilk, Easterhouse, and Pollok — built by Glasgow Corporation in the late 1940s and 1950s to address the city's chronic housing shortage. The schemes were intended as model communities, but the failure to provide adequate shops, schools, community facilities, and employment opportunities in the early years created significant social problems that persisted for decades. Drumchapel's proximity to the Kilpatrick Hills, however, gives the area a natural asset that many inner-city communities lack, and the hills — which rise to over a thousand feet above sea level — offer spectacular views across the Clyde valley and beyond.
