Jordanhill

Jordanhill is a mainly middle-class area of the city of Glasgow, Scotland. It is characterised by its detached and semi-detached style of housing, unusual for Glasgow which is predominantly made up of tenemental style property.

The area was home to the Jordanhill Teacher Training College, which has subsequently merged with the University of Strathclyde.

Jordanhill School is the only state school in Scotland which receives its funding directly from central Government, rather than through a local authority.
