Summerston
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Summerston is a residential area of Glasgow, Scotland.
Located in the North-West of the city it is part of the Maryhill district of the city. The area first grew as a council housing scheme in the 1970s, but lately there have been a number of private housing developments added as well. The housing is mixed, with some flats in the area, but by and large the housing is of the terraced and semi-detached variety.
The area is right on the periphery of the City of Glasgow local authority boundaries, and is near to Bearsden. Part of the Glasgow conurbation is outside those boundaries (being instead part of the East Dunbartonshire council area).
John Paul Academy, one of Glasgow's 11 Roman Catholic secondary schools is located in Summerston.
