Kelvindale (Scottish Gaelic: Dail Chealbhainn) is a district in the West End of the city of Glasgow, Scotland.

Subsequently in the 1930s the Western Heritable Investment Company extended the district considerably by building the last range of pre-war tenements at Dorchester Avenue, Ripon Drive, etc.

These tenements are unique since they are built on concrete rafts due to the heavy mine workings in the district from the Garscube Estate.

[citation needed] The district is dominated by the Temple gas holders (erected in 1891, now de-commissioned and Category B listed in 2018) which were reputed to be the biggest in the United Kingdom.

[2][3] During the Second World War the Royal Air Force stationed a balloon unit on what is now ex-MoD housing on Dorchester Avenue.

The large fields were once used for grazing horses and cattle but are now the site of more tenement building and the Kelvindale Primary School.

In 2007, Bryant Homes controversially removed a large number of trees from a local lane to provide better access to a new housing development.

One partially constructed four story housing block burnt to the ground and the only occupied building on the site was evacuated.
