Heritage

The Heritage Centre is currently closed to the public. 

Established by House for an Art Lover within the former stables and dovecote building of Ibroxhill House, the Heritage Centre showcases the rich and diverse history of Bellahouston and the surrounding area.

In the Heritage Centre you can:

  • Explore the history of Govan, from its early days right through to the expansion of industry and glory days of shipbuilding.
  • Enjoy a documentary exhibition presenting the diverse range of architecture, public art and sculpture in the local area.
  • Learn about the British Empire Exhibition of 1938 in a dedicated showcase, featuring an animated “fly-through” designed by Glasgow School of Art’s digital design studios.
  • Research and discover our archive rooms, containing a range of original and facsimile artefacts and publications relating to all our displays and archives.*

Admission £1

*Access to our research and archive room is free and available to the public; we do however request that you book in advance. Please contact us on 0141 483 1619 or email arts@houseforanartlover.co.uk
