| Comment | Oatlands isn't Gorbals. If you're going to parenthesize to the nearest known area it would be Oatlands (Polmadie). Better still, don't bother with the parenthesis and just call it Oatlands. Nobody says Haghill (Dennistoun) or Dowanhill (Hillhead) or Ruchill (Maryhill). Just call it what it is. Oatlands.
Anyhow. You'll be moving to the new 'Richmond Park' developments? Decent enough area. Not a whole lot of entertainment in the area. You do have the Jenny Burn pub, which is like a Brewsters type place. There's a Farmfoods right across the main road. Nearest Asda is in Toryglen. Nearest Tesco is just up from Farme Cross. New retail park getting built on the other side of Dixon's Blazes, expect it to be open in around 6 to 12 months. Good access to Glasgow Green via that nearly new footbridge. No community centres within the immediate area itself, but you're not excessively far from all facilities in Govanhill, Bridgeton and Gorbals. |
