Old Dalmarnock on Film
A recently re-discovered film provides a unique insight into a forgotten corner of the east end, once home to over 50,000 residents and a host of industries. It captures a bustling Dalmarnock in the mid-1960s, just as the first high-rises were being built and before the canyons of tenements were demolished. Made by local amateur filmmakers associated with Dalmarnock Parish Church, the film was due to form part of a collaborative project with pupils from Riverbank Primary School, examining what it takes to build a community. Covid-19 has forced us to delay filming till next year but this special screening aims to gather memories and kick start conversations around place and community.
