This paper examines Glasgow’s urban transformation between the 18th and early 19th centuries, focusing on the shift from ecclesiastical nucleus to industrial city. It highlights how infrastruc- tural interventions and early regulatory frameworks – such as the Glasgow Police Act (1800) – fostered spatial reconfiguration, revealing a complex interplay between pragmatic needs and proto-planning strategies.
