Meadowside appears in Ainsley’s 1976 Map of the County of Renfrew and his 1821 Map of the Southern Part of Scotland. This was Mauldslie St. in 1913.
“The main road through the village began at the northern end of the old Partick Bridge which had a toll on it. Called the Meadow Road, it led to the meadow on the western outskirts of the village in the area now called Meadowside.” The Glasgow Story Bill Spalding: Neighbourhoods: Partick
