Editing Partick (section)

==Areas==
It is historically divided into three social areas; south of Dumbarton Road, north of Dumbarton Road and the [[Partickhill|Partick Hill]] grand villas.  Being within the sphere of influence of the [[University of Glasgow]] and neighbouring Glasgow's salubrious "West End" it has a high student population.  Traditional industries for the area were shipbuilding and the huge Meadowside Granary (recently demolished to make way for the new [[Glasgow Harbour]] residential development) employed many residents also.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://gdl.cdlr.strath.ac.uk/airgli/airgli0112.htm |title=Glimpses of old Glasgow: Shipbuilding and Engineering |website=gdl.cdlr.strath.ac.uk |access-date=9 February 2012 |archive-date=6 August 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110806001417/http://gdl.cdlr.strath.ac.uk/airgli/airgli0112.htm |url-status=live }}</ref> The main street in Partick, Dumbarton Road, has a number of services for residents to use.
