Immediately north of Maryhill basin and Maryhill locks, it is the district where the Bowling and Port Dundas branches of the Forth and Clyde Canal meet each other, at Stockingfield Junction. Situated on a hill overlooking Glasgow, its highest point sits at an elevation of about 150 metres above sea level. Gilshochill is spread over the area around Sandbank Street, bordering the areas of Cadder and Summerston. It falls under the G20 area postal code. It is served by Gilshochill railway station. A new footbridge connecting the area with Ruchill and providing a better link to Maryhill, was installed at Stockingfield Junction in 2022.Gilshochill comprises semi-detached privately owned homes set in private housing estates overlooking Glasgow, some Victorian, 16th- and 17th-century buildings. There are also several towers, such as the 20-storey high rise tower blocks at Glenavon road and some tenements. Gilshochill is set in one of the oldest areas in Maryhill; one of the oldest churches in the area is found here, dating from the late 17th century. Some houses built around the same time can also be found there.There are also a very large number of council dwellings in this area. Some are scheduled for demolition in the future.

Cadder is a neighbourhood in the north of Glasgow, Scotland. Within the Canal ward under Glasgow City Council, historically more closely associated with the Lambhill and Maryhill districts, it is located 5 kilometres (3 mi) north of Glasgow city centre, sited on the route of the Forth and Clyde Canal. Occupying a footprint which is around 800 metres (870 yd) east to west but only 200 metres (220 yd) north to south on a fairly steep incline, the neighbourhood was built in the early 1950s and borders Glasgow Western Necropolis & Crematorium, Lambhill Cemetery and St. Kentigern's RC Cemetery, as well as Possil Marsh at its eastern side. This Cadder is not to be confused with Cadder (part of Bishopbriggs) which is about 3 miles (5 km) to the north-east along the canal. The amenities are mainly local shops located on Skirsa Street and on Cadder Road. The area also has an eponymous primary school, a nursery on Langa Street and formerly St. Agnes' RC Primary School, which has closed – there are now residential properties of various types situated on the old school site. Overall, housing in the area is a mixture of three-and four-storey tenements and semi detached housing, either privately owned or rented by Cadder Housing Association which has its offices on Fara Street. The Community Centre is located on Tresta Road. Streets are named after features of northern Scotland such as the Shetland Islands. Cadder has transport links, but they are limited, in contrast to nearby neighbourhoods like Summerston. The area is served by First Glasgow bus services. No. 7/7A (Formerly No. 54), and No. 8/8A. There is also a train station on the Maryhill Line that runs between Glasgow Queen Street and Anniesland. At the time of the line's opening in 1993 the station was named "Lambhill", despite being located on the western side of Cadder some distance from the Lambhill neighbourhood. It was renamed Gilshochill railway station in May 1998.

Ruchill Parish Church is an early-20th-century parish church of the Church of Scotland located in the Ruchill area of Glasgow.

Ruchill Church Hall, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, was built as a mission for the Free Church of Scotland and completed in 1899. It is located at 15/17 Shakespeare Street, a side road off Maryhill Road, Glasgow, Scotland, close to the bridge which takes Ruchill Street across the Forth and Clyde Canal to the Ruchill area, and near a shopping centre on the main road. The adjacent church closer to the canal was constructed later, designed by a different architect. The building provides two halls, with the main hall having a section divided off by a sliding folding partition, and two committee rooms. It is in active use by the congregation of the church, and is open daily providing community facilities as well as a "Mackintosh Tea Room" providing teas and snacks in the main hall for anyone wanting to visit. Entering from Shakespeare Street, a committee room is to the right, while to the left a passageway leads past a screened washbasin to a door to the stairwell. Next on the left is a small kitchen / servery, while straight ahead from the main entrance doors lead into the corner of the main hall. On the right a large bay is separated off from the main hall with a sliding folding partition incorporating high level glazed panels with Mackintosh's characteristic stained glass inserts. The stair leads up to a short corridor past toilet facilities located above the kitchen, leading to an upper committee room directly above the committee room downstairs, and to an upper hall above the bay off the main hall. These two rooms are separated by a sliding folding partition which can be opened to form one long rectangular space. The roof structure to the upper committee room and hall is exposed, with roof lights to both rooms, and its gable forms a strong shape to the right of the front elevation.

The newlywed soldiers could spend their honeymoon night there. It offered a tearoom and a quiet room. It was described as "a neat edifice open to visitors".An honorary superindendant who served for 24 years was Willamina Davidson OBE, who raised substantial sums and was involved in the Edinburgh and Barry Buddon facilities.

Ruchill () is a district in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. It lies within the Canal Ward of north Glasgow in the Ruchill Community Council area between the Maryhill and Possilpark areas of the city. It has traditionally been characterised by a high degree of deprivation and social problems. However, from the late 1990s much of the poorer-quality housing stock has been cleared to be replaced by newly built housing association and owner-occupied homes, improving much of the area's character. One part of the area that is largely unchanged is High Ruchill, which unlike the rest of the area was never made up of tenemental properties, but semi-detached housing instead. This part of Ruchill also never suffered the same concentration of social problems as the rest of the area.

Ruchill Park is a public park in Ruchill, Glasgow, Scotland, approximately 2 miles (3 km) north-west of the city centre. It is adjacent to the former location of Ruchill Hospital on Bilsland Drive.

Lochburn Park is a football stadium in the Maryhill area of Glasgow, Scotland. It is the home ground Maryhill F.C. of the Scottish Junior Football Association West Region, who have played there since the late 19th century.The ground is tightly hemmed in by light industrial units, with just one corner access point and a sunken-level pitch. It was built on the site of a former quarry and was previously home to the Kelvin Dock Curling Club. After buying Maryhill in 1989, local businessman Freddie Duda invested £700,000 to make Lochburn Park one of the most developed grounds in junior football, adding floodlights, a seated stand and a gym with sauna.The ground was also shared by BSC Glasgow of the Scottish Lowland Football League between 2014 and 2016. Maryhill shared Lochburn with fellow junior club Clydebank during the 2018–19 season while redevelopment work took place at Clydebank's regular home ground, Holm Park.

Maryhill Barracks was built on 12 hectares (30 acres) of the Ruchill estate, in the Maryhill area of northern Glasgow, Scotland.

Lambhill is an area in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. It is situated north of the River Clyde, approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the city centre.Lambhill is a mainly residential area comprising both council and private housing. Residents are of a mixed age group. Lambhill has been in existence since the middle 18th Century, the original settlement probably coming from the north bank of the Forth and Clyde Canal (known as the Shangi, after a sailing captain who mentioned that the settlement reminded him of Shanghai). Many working men were employed in the nearby mine in Cadder. In nearby Lambhill Cemetery there is a memorial to the Cadder Pit disaster of 3 August 1913, which claimed 22 lives. The funeral service for the disaster was held in St Agnes Church on Balmore Road. Benny Lynch the great Glasgow boxer also is buried in Lambhill Cemetery which is bordered by Western Necropolis. Hillend Road would appear to be one of the earliest streets to be built and the houses are of mixed vintage and build. The tenements are probably the oldest. At one time the Lord Provost of Glasgow David Hodge stayed in this street, as did John Logie Baird who took lodgings there. At the top of Hillend Road there is a golf course which is bordered by Ruchill on the opposite side. There are also numerous abandoned railway tunnels which would appear to link to the abandoned Botanic Gardens railway station. The Halloween Pen is a small tunnel which runs underneath the Forth and Clyde Canal and links Lambhill to Ruchill. Bordering the south side of Hillend Rd are the garden allotments. Near to the allotments, on Balmore Road, is the ticket office of a station for an abandoned railway line.
