Bearsden is found on the fringes of Glasgow and is a town that has plenty going for it.
The town has a rich history with the Roman Antonine Wall running through the town with the first known settlement on the land dating back to between 142 and 144 AD with the current settlement beginning in the 17th century.
Glasgow is well connected to Bearsden with a railway connection first being established over 160 years ago with the town becoming an affluent suburb that people wanted to live in.
We have picked out some of the best spots to visit in Bearsden.
1. Visit the Antonine Wall.
The fort which once stood at Bearsden is now mostly covered by roads and houses, but the bath house within its annexe can still be seen. The well-preserved bath house and latrine give visitors an insight into the daily lives of the soldiers stationed along the Antonine Wall. | Historic Environment Scotland
