GOLoS moved out of their building in Bridgeton having been there for around 20
years. It has been
purchsed by Clyde Gateway to be turned into
offices.
The former Salvation Army Hall was
designed in 1927
The
Grand Orange Lodge of
Scotland is made up of four County Grand
Lodges:
Ayrshire-Renfrewshire and
Argyll, Central Scotland, East of Scotland
and Glasgow.
From these County Grand
Lodges Orangemen and Orangewomen
are elected to the organisation's
governing body.
The Orange Lodge had large numbers in
Bridgeton and three Orange Halls that I can
remember...Tullis Street, Mordaunt Street and
Landressy St ( moved to Olympia Street )
As a child I remember the streets thronging with
people watching the accordion and flute bands go
by......
Note there were two halls in Landressy St.
a large old building which was the Masonic hall
and another building which was the Greenhead
Barrowfield church hall then it became the
Apprentice Boys Hall in which Orange
Lodges met It became the
Keystane Pub. now closed.
At the time of writing July 2004
there are two Orange Halls in Bridgeton
: Tullis
St and Olympia
St.
