Wyndford Totally Explained

Everything about Wyndford totally explained

Wyndford is an area of the city of Glasgow, Scotland. Located in the Maryhill district in the Northwest of the city, Wyndford is bounded by Maryhill Road to the north and the River Kelvin to the south. The area comprises council housing that's typical of that which was built throughout Glasgow in the 1960s and 1970s. The houses are now either privately owned or mainly run by a local housing association.
It is built on the site of the former Glasgow city barracks, hence many local people colloquially refer to the area as "the Barracks". These barracks were built in 1876 when the Glasgow barracks were moved from the city's east end to this site, despite the fact that Maryhill was technically not part of the city at the time, as it was then a politically independent burgh. Home to the Highland Light Infantry, after the barracks closed in 1960, the site was chosen for the Wyndford housing scheme (the Glaswegian term for housing estate). The former barrack's walls and gatehouse are still in place though, and they form a perimeter around the Wyndford estate.
The footballers Charlie Nicholas and Jim Duffy are both originally from the Wyndford area.
