Junction of A8 and A80
Looking east along Cumbernauld Road (A8) to the junction where Cumbernauld Road continues to the left as the A80 while the A8 continues straight through as Edinburgh Road.
In the days before the M8 bypassed this junction, for most of the day this was extremely congested often taking a long time to travel along Alexandra Parade and Cumbernauld Road to this junction.

Alexandra Park
Dennistoun benefits from a large Victorian park. The Park takes its name from Princess Alexandra, the wife of the future King Edward VII, who officially opened the Park in 1870. The park was established in 1866 when the City Improvement Trustees purchased the park from Mr. Walter Stewart of Haghill. Mr. Alexander Dennistoun, the proprietor of the adjoining estate of Golfhill, later gifted five acres of land to the City Improvement Trustees.
