Tour: Red Clydeside

Route: city centre, meeting on Glasgow Green and ending on the Broomielaw at James Watt Street. We adapt the routes every time we run tours depending on roadworks, closures etc. If you’d like to see the map for an upcoming tour drop us a line on radicalglasgowtours at gmail.com. See this page for more information on accessibility on our tours.

This tour looks at histories of political radicalism on the Clyde, from rent strikes, riots and revolutionaries to lion tamers and sharpshooting schoolteachers. Even a wee trade union cat.
