Greenbank Garden is attached to the 1760'S home of Glasgow merchant, Robert Allason. Since 1976, the gardens and home have been managed by the National Trust for Scotland, following it being gifted to them by the then owners Mr & Mrs Blyth. Established as a garden advice centre, for owners of small suburban gardens. The gardens are beautifully kept and managed. There are a variety of plants, trees, herbs, and items of historical interest within then, surrounded by a garden wall. Throughout the garden, there are benches for you to stop and take in the beautiful surroundings. It's a fantastic location on a beautiful sunny day to sit and read a book or just relax. Items of interest include the 1938 Glasgow Empire Exhibition statue called "Foam" displayed as part of a water fountain. There is a cafe on site both inside and a covered courtyard area.
