The rear of the Category B listed http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB33302 cottage in Elder Park. It is in very poor condition and in the Buildings at Risk Register https://buildingsatrisk.org.uk/search/keyword/govan/event_id/904391/building_name/fairfield-farm-govan. For many years the building was used by the Council's Parks Department, but after a re-organisation staff were transferred to other locations and the building lay empty and in due course was vandalised. In 2012-13 the Elder Farm Community took over the grounds around the building as a community garden, but the site is derelict again.
