People have lived in and around the Glasgow area for millennia, with the River Clyde providing a natural location for fishing. Tribal communities initially populated the area.
Later, the Romans built outposts and the Antonine Wall nearby to keep Roman Britannia separate from the Celtic and Pictish Caledonia. Glasgow eventually grew from a small rural settlement to become the largest seaport in Scotland.
Much of its development took place during the Industrial Revolution when it became known for shipbuilding and textiles.
Glasgow went on to be dubbed the “Second City of the British Empire due to its importance during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Although the UK’s status as a world power has since diminished, the city remains vibrant and bold throughout.
Why not make the most of your time here by visiting an Afternoon Tea Glasgow venue? You won’t be disappointed.
