Polmadie
The twin chimneys of a now disused waste incinerator plant operated by Glasgow City Council.
In the 15th century this area was a medieval hospital ran by monk, it was beside a spring and a burn (rivulet) that flowed into the river Clyde.
The name Polmadie comes from the Gaelic - Poll Mac Dè: Poll = pool - Mac = of the sons - De’= God (pool of the sons of god).
