Shawlands (Scottish Gaelic: Fearann na Doire)[3] is a Southside suburb of Glasgow, Scotland, located two miles south of the River Clyde.

The area, considered the "Heart of the Southside", is known for its independent restaurants and cafés, art scene, public parks, period terraces, and red and blond sandstone tenements.

Over time, the number of inhabitants in this largely artisanal and industrial area doubled due to the formation of significant local businesses, such as the Camphill Bakery, which opened in 1847.

[7] With improving transport infrastructure and the expansion of Glasgow southwards in this period, Shawlands developed into an important commercial centre for that sector of the city.

The Langside Halls, a Category A listed building,[11] stands on the corner of Queens Park, opposite the Corona Bar.

The building was originally built for the National Bank of Scotland in Queen Street, and was resituated in 1901-3, to meet an evident need for a public hall on the southside.

[12] For many years, a drinking fountain constructed by the Saracen Foundry stood in front of the Halls, but was relocated to Glasgow Green.

Future Fitness, located on Kilmarnock Road, provides gym and aerobic exercise classes, alongside PureGym Shawlands Arcade.
