Pollockshaws or Pollokshaws

Is it Pollockshaws or Pollokshaws?

And... is it in Renfrewshire or Lanarkshire?

Best Wishes,

Izabel .... Until 1912 or thereabouts Pollokshaws (or pollockshaws .... which is the older spelling) was in Renfrewshire after that date it was annexed into Glasgow and therefore became a part of Lanarkshire.

See The Glasgow Story for more details
