"Family Portraits - the Scots Italians 1890-1940" a resource at the National Library of Scotland, created to accompany an exhibition.
https://maps.nls.uk/projects/italians/
A-Z of Italians resident in Scotland in 1930s with their addresses. Locations on an interactive map of Scotland. Location icons colour-coded according to Italian region of origin, where known.
A source for the names and addresses was "Guida Generale Degli Italiani in Gran Bretagna" ("General Guide to Italians in Great Britain" published London 1936) Contains names of many heads of households but is limited in coverage of people living outside main population areas.
