North of the River Clyde, it is bounded by the districts of Thornwood and Partick to the south, Hyndland to the east, and Jordanhill, Scotstoun and Victoria Park to the west.

Transport to and from the area is supported by First Glasgow bus services 4 & 16 along Crow Road, and various "dial buses" on Broomhill Drive, and the nearby train stations of Hyndland and Jordanhill.

In 2018 a modern building for the entire school was opened, featuring an all-weather sports pitch.

This school has recently undergone major development work including new science labs in a new building, and sports facilities.

The club is based at several local schools and welcomes children and adults in to participate in several sports.

Within the base, there are drill halls, classrooms, stores, armoury, garages, kitchens, and bars.

As well as significant renovation to Social Housing in the area, undertaken in 2013,[13] the building of the former Anniesland College at the bottom of Broomhill Drive is to be converted into several luxury apartments, restoring the main Victorian facade.
