Abercromby Street    

 The street at London Road is now a 'dead-end' which is very appropriate......because that's where the funeral parlour and old graveyard is!

Taylor Bros. Funeral directors been looking after the dead in Bridgeton for many years.
When I was a boy there premises were in Dalmarnock Road at Bridgeton Cross, I remember the men washing the big black cars and hearses.

 

...............and below how the corner looked in 1936
