Yes there were two children's homes in Cardross Bloomhill and Cardrosss park, Bloomhill was for children, matron at one time was a Mrs Muir, it became a care home and is now unused. Cardross Park was a children's home with children of various ages, is now flats with houses built on its surrounding land. I can see the building close from where i am sitting.

Cardross was used as an “assessment” centre for young people and was part of Strathclyde Regional Council’s social work services….It was managed by Glasgow City Council (forSRC). It closed at the time of council reorganisation in 1996.
