Recreation facilities are few in Gorbals. Pubs are plentiful. there are 174 of them (above Frank Judge’s Bar) Some are good, some bad, all popular. but the idea that gorbals is peopled by roughnecked boozers is erroneous. The area is remarkble for kind, friendly folk, with a strong feeling for social justice. The Forgotten Gorbals, Glasgow, Scotland, 1948 photo by Bert Hardy
