Title: Lyall street Glasgow
Post by: Johnbhoy16 on Wednesday 22 January 25 15:29 GMT (UK)
Trying to find Lyall street on the old maps of Glasgow. I have a rough idea that it might be near the woodside area but I can't find it on the map.

Thanks

And you too. I was just coming back to check which year, as the first few maps I had looked at on NLS didn't show Lyall Street.

I searched for the street on the census and it only shows in 1881-1901 years

It's listed in the Post Office Directories for Glasgow at least until 1943.
