Castlemilk is a district which lies to the south of Glasgow’s city centre which has produced many famous faces over the decades.
The area was developed during the 1950s as a housing scheme to accommodate Glaswegians from inner-slum areas such as the Gorbals with the population in the area peaking at 37,000 people in 1971.
Many notable Glaswegians once called Castlemilk home with the neighbourhood producing singers, footballers and actors.
