Wallacewell Children's Unit at 70 Wallacewell Quadrant was a purpose built property that provided 24 hour residential care and support for children and young people being looked after and accommodated by the local authority. The home closed sometime after September 2012, and Glasgow City Council were supposed to build a smaller purpose built children's unit on the same grounds in line with modernisation of children's residential services. Barmulloch Community Centre and Library is visible in the distance.
