Cowglen is a district in the Scottish city of Glasgow, within the Newlands/Auldburn ward of the city but geographically closer to the large suburb of Pollok.
Much of its territory is open land occupied by a golf course, and it also adjoins Pollok Country Park.
Cowglen was the site of a new military hospital during World War II,[1] which continued to operate until 2000.
[2] In the 2010s, work began on a substantial housing development in the area, based around the site of the hospital and the demolished buildings of a large National Savings and Investments regional headquarters to its north,[3] with the project encouraged by the proximity of the Silverburn Shopping Centre, Kennishead railway station and Junction 2 of the M77 motorway.
