Boundaries are sometimes no' very clear and open tae debate and local perceptions. Brigton / Dalmarnock is wan dear tae me
Ella, New York USA ....
I have been out of the country for many years, and the railway bridge in Dalmarnock Rd. was always the dividing line between Dalmarnock and Bridgeton, at least it was when I lived there.
Chrissie, Glasgow .... Bridgeton becomes Dalmarnock at Ruby Street hence the tram depot was called Dalmarnock Tram Depot, Dalmarnock Primary School etc.
