Dixon Halls
Crosshill and Govanhill Burgh Hall was gifted to the burghs by William Smith Dixon of Govan Iron Works.
The Scottish Baronial building was completed in 1879. The architect was Frank Stirrat, the winner of a competition for its commission. The boundary between the two burghs bisected the building allowing courtrooms and offices for each burgh to have separate access.
The building was renamed Dixon Halls when Crosshill and Govanhill were annexed by Glasgow in 1891.

Holy Cross Church, Crosshill
This Church in Dixon Avenue is one of the earliest post- Reformation Catholic churches outwith central Glasgow, and was built in 1911. The parish of Holy Cross had been established in 1886 during the short period when Crosshill was an independent burgh.
The architects were Pugin and Pugin, whose Italianate design provides a local landmark.
