As a resident of one of Robert Duncan's beautifully designed homes on Dixon Avenue, I’ve come to appreciate the lasting impact of this overlooked architect. His 21 distinctive houses, with their unique bay windows and ornate details, have given Crosshill its special character and earned it conservation status. Duncan's work is a hidden gem in Glasgow’s architectural heritage.

The annual event, which this year runs 12th-18th September, celebrates Glasgow’s heritage and culture by throwing open the doors of over 100 historic buildings to the public, for free.

In Issue 1 of Greater Govanhill community magazine, Jamie Dyer took a look at some of Govanhill’s iconic buildings, the stories of which reveal both the neighbourhood’s past and future.
