Lambhill Community Council's Heritage Fayre makes it a day to remember for local residents.
Industrial Archaeologist, Professor John Hume gave an insightful lecture to local residents gathered in St. Agnes' Church to hear about the history of Lambhill and the many industries that used to be based there.
Bill Taylor, author, local resident and expert on Lambhill was present talking to friends and locals about his book "A Short History Of Lambhill, Possil And The Lands Of The North West." Originally published to commemorate the city as part of the "Glasgow 800" celebrations in the 1970s.

The Old Stables Building
Lambhill Community Council also ran barge trips for local people to experience the canal on the water and the "green corridor" that it runs through in North Glasgow.
The LCC are developing the old stables building beside Lambhill Bridge to be put to community use.

LAMBHILL REGENERATION
The initial aim of the Lambhill Stables is to restore & enhance the existing Lambhill Stables as an important historical landmark and environmental amenity. The mission is to develop a programme of innovative, community-based activities from the geographical hub of Lambhill Stables which in turn links to the regeneration of the whole canal corridor. Lambhill Community Council's vision is to see the site transformed into a productive space that provides opportunities for disadvantaged local residents to transform their lives through relevant occupational training and employment opportunities. It will deliver on the themes of Employability, Health, Learning, Safety and Vibrancy.
