Govan mural unveiled celebrating local area to mark 50th anniversary of housing association

A new mural has been unveiled in Govan to mark the 50th anniversary of Govan Housing Association.

The artwork on Govan Road was created by street artist Sam Bates - better known as Smug - and depicts a young girl bending down to pick a daffodil.

The daffodil has a little-known connection to the area thanks to 19th-century Govanite and horticulture expert Peter Barr who was known as “Govan’s Daffodil King”.
