Giffnock

Encyclopedia : G : GI : GIF : Giffnock


Giffnock is an area within the south Glasgow conurbation in Scotland which homes around 9,345 people. It is located very close to where the A77 road from Glasgow to Kilmarnock crosses the A727 from Paisley to East Kilbride. It lies outside the City of Glasgow local authority area and houses the administrative offices of East Renfrewshire council.

Giffnock is a relatively wealthy area, and is also home to Scotland's largest Jewish community.

It is also home to St Ninian's High School, which is, like East Renfrewshire's other schools, one of Scotland's top-performing state schools.
