Baltic
Street
was formed on ground acquired by Baltic Jute Works
Co, who built
extensive factories here.
It was a very long street in Bridgeton and
ran north to south between Heron Street and
Summerfield Street.

" I was
stationed in Holy Loch in the early 70's
and met my wife there. She is a Canadian.
Her mother grew up on Baltic Street and
she always told me stories of the place.
You have kept a good piece of history
alive by starting this website. It is too
bad that all those beautiful old buildings
were destroyed in the name of progress.
Keep up the good work and we will keep on
visiting"

Street and went to
Dalmarnock School with my sisters May
and Joan.1945-1952. I could write a book
about time spent there and a good one at
that" |
