The Kendal. 1991.

This old established pub dated back to 1864 when Andrew McWilliam was landlord. Over the year many Glasgow publicans have tried to make a living out of this pub. The area wa then heavily populated with public houses and licensed grocers, within a few hundred yards of the pub there were over twenty pubs, six licensed grocers and a hotel.

Donald McCaskill well known publican took over in the 1930s, he was the owner of the famous Kirkhouse in Shettleston.

It was sad to see this old pub being demolished a few years ago.

End.
