Follow our volunteer tour guides from the former Royal Maternity Hospital on Rottenrow to the medieval-looking Mercat Cross and the Tron clock through the streets of the Merchant City.
This guided walk will focus on some of the achievements and struggles of the industrious and resourceful women of Glasgow's East End, and the radical nature of the area which gave birth to them.
This hilly walk, based in one of Glasgow’s most fascinating Victorian garden cemeteries, looks at the stories of both the notorious and the forgotten women who are buried in these atmospheric and ethereal surroundings, with fantastic views over the city.
