Gairbraid is a small housing scheme in Maryhill, Glasgow. It is bordered by Wyndford to the south, Botany to the north, Kelvindale to the west and Ruchill nearby to the east. Housing in the area is mostly made up of inter war tenements. These have been neglected over the years and many are in an illetable state. New housing has been built in the 1990s at Gairbraid Court and this redevelopment is set to continue with the whole tenement estate in Gairbraid condemned and will be pulled down completely by 2016, much like what is happening to its neighbouring scheme, Botany.
