The Cecil.

When David died his wife Jane took over the running of the business from 1887 until 1924. One of the barman in the Cecil was James McCarthy who left to live in Dumfries.
After 1924 the licence was transferred to a well known and respected gentleman called Peter McCrudden.
Mr McCrudden held onto the licence for three years then sold it to the Neeson family. One of the last licencee was a Mr Devlin who ran the pub until 1960 after that the pub was demolished as was most of the pub in the area at that time.
I would like to thank Peter Quinn for the first image of the Cecil Bar.

Cawder Vaults.

Cawder Vaults. 1991.
This old established pub is now closed down. It was set on fire like many of our old Glasgow pub in recent years, there seems to be more than usual in the last couple of years. Follies, the Bay Horse in West Nile Street and the Clarendon on Maryhill Road, Granny Blacks, Candleriggs and Rigg’s Bar Candleriggs.
Established in 1876 this old pub was owned by Alexander Kay. Alexander died a very young man leaving his wife Christina and small daughters. Christina had to run the pub to keep her young family and her house above the pub, she employed a servant Jessie who looked after the kids while she ran a very busy public house, which faced the old Caley (Caledonian Railway Company.)
Mrs McKay sold the pub to well known brothers George and John MacLachlan in 1881, the brothers also owned another pub at 400 Springburn Road at the corner of Palermo Street. The MacLachlan brothers owned dozens of pubs in and around Glasgow including the Castle Brewery in Maryhill, Auchentoshan Distillery, Duntocher and the Castle Chambers in West Regent Street. All of MacLachlan’s pubs were called Castle Bar or Castle Vaults whoever when Tennent’s Caledonian Brewery took over MacLachlan’s business the pub had a name change The Cawder Vaults.

James Lundie opened these premises in 1962. James was a well known south side publican having premises at the corner of Cavendish Street and Pollokshaws Road which were demolished in the Gorbals reconstruction program that saw many old pubs being flattened.

This old pub was called the Cavendish, when Mr Lundie moved to Nitshill Road in 1962 the name carried on living. This new enterprise consisted of massive public bars and a lounge much different from his old premises.
