The sixties were a defining era for the world with it being one of the most tumultuous and divisive decades in history which the Gorbals was not immune to.
Glasgow was rapidly changing in the post-war years as tenement buildings were pulled down, with high rise living being the new way forward with the Gorbals being classified as one of the worst slums in Europe.
Here is a look back at Glasgow life in the Gorbals during the sixties and how the area changed.
