Shawlands is a district in the south side of Glasgow. It lies south of Strathbungo and Crossmyloof, north of Pollokshaws, east of Pollok Country Park and west of Langside. The heart of the community is the Shawlands Arcade which is the focal point of the south side's night life. Shawlands can be split into three areas. The area west of the railway line is made up of Victorian tenements, the central part has seen some inter-war development in the form of semi-detached cottages and there are also a few Victorian properties here. The easternmost part consists of post-war tenements north of Moss-side Road.
