Duke Street in Glasgow’s East End is one of the city’s most recognisable thoroughfares, stretching for two miles through the districts of Ladywell, Dennistoun, and Parkhead.
From 1460 until 1870, the original buildings of the University of Glasgow stood at the junction of High Street and Duke Street, before the university relocated to the West End.
Join us as we take a nostalgic journey along one of Glasgow’s most famous streets and explore how it has evolved over the years.
