Framed Print of Crosshill and Govanhill Burgh Hall, near Glasgow, 1880. Creator: Unknown
Crosshill and Govanhill Burgh Hall, near Glasgow, 1880....the two adjacent towns of Crosshill and Govanhill have rapidly grown up to some importance. Their industrial prosperity has been due in a great measure to the extensive collieries and ironworks belonging to Mr. W. S. Dixon...The burghs have separate municipalities, each with a Provost and a body of Commissioners for its local affairs; but a common Burgh Hall, for their meetings and the transaction of public business, has lately been erected. This building, of which we present an Illustration, is the magnificent gift of Mr. Dixon to the public...The burghs of Crosshill and Govanhill, though close to one another, are situated in different counties, Lanark and Renfrew. It was desirable to provide a court-room for the magistrates of each district, and each magistracy must sit within its own county. Mr. Dixon therefore took care to find a site for the building exactly upon the border line of the two counties, so that each courtroom might be in its proper county, yet within the same building...The architect [was] Mr. Stirrat;...the builder was Mr. Eadie'.
