The original home of Third Lanark FC, the first Cathkin Park in Govanhill. This is the 1895 Glasgow Cup Final between Celtic and Rangers. ![]() |

I'd be interested to find that out too. I seem to recall that the original park was on ground loaned to them by Dixons Blazes? .... or was that the 2nd Hampden Park that became Cathkin Park. |

Did some research on this - the original Cathkin was where Boyd Street now joins Cathcart Road. The Cathkin Park we know today was originally the 2nd Hampden Park which Queen's Park built when they had to vacate their original home in the Queen's Park itself to make way for the Crosshill to Mount Florida railway line. When Queen's Park wanted to expand their stadium and bought the lands of Clincarthill Farm to build the present Hampden that allowed Thirds to move up Cathcart Road a wee bit to New Cathkin Park, which we now know today as Cathkin Park! The picture below shows the steeple in the old Cathkin picture that is directly above the corner flag. The area is now red sandstone tenements. ![]() EDit - also shows the grey sandstone tenement that is next to the steeple. Edited by niarb, 28 Aug 2013, 03:34 PM.

Hate to say it, but look at Le Petite Merde's movement there - typical of a great CF, instinct making him take off before anyone else :(. |

I've played there - it's all run down now, mossy terraces and aw that. Pitch isn't great either. Shame really for what is a massive piece of Scottish football history. |

Think that's the 2nd Cathkin you've played on. The one above is now covered by red sandstone tenements that are themselves old. |
