Blythswood Square

Blythswood Square is the Georgian square on Blythswood Hill in the heart of the City of Glasgow, Scotland. The square is part of the 'Magnificent New Town of Blythswood' built in the 1800s on the rising empty ground west of a very new Buchanan Street. These open grounds were part of the vast Lands of Blythswood stretching to the River Kelvin acquired by the Douglas-Campbell family in the 17th century.^[1] The Blythswood district, and its grid of streets, became a Conservation Area in 1970, because of its important architectural and historic buildings.

The square is one of the largest residential developments on Blythswood Hill on over 35 acres (14 ha) of ground.^[1]^[2]
