In 1898 that part of Gallowgate was in Glasgow City parish, but close to the boundary with Barony parish. The OS map of that time is at http://www.nls.uk/maps/os/view/?sid=74400786 and shows the tortuous path the boundary between these two parishes followed at that time.

Thank you Iain, That is perfect. I was really, really hoping it would be in or around Barony.
