I'm glad that map has proved useful for many people. I drew it and added it to my website for exactly this type of query.
In the mid 1980's I came across a large map with the parish boundaries and thought it might be handy at some time in the future. I had to photocopy it in lots of small parts, glue them together and hand colour it with watercolour. Things are a lot easier these days with good graphics software  :)

Sancti, St Giles was divided physically into several parish churches, same as Glasgow Cathedral.

Bests,
