	TGS - 1830s to 1914 - Neighbourhoods - The Gorbals
		The old Gorbals village, including all traces of both squalor and antiquity, was swept away in the 1870s by the Glasgow City Improvement Trust which later proceeded with the development of Oatlands, the Gorbals' third main present-day constituent.
		In 1846, the Gorbals' administrative independence ended - Glasgow's boundaries were extended to include the area and the local police force merged with that of the city.
		The Gorbals accommodated a wide variety of people attracted by the expanding city's employment opportunities and who were also, in some cases, fleeing persecution - initially from the Scottish Highlands and Ireland, but later joined by significant Jewish, Lithuanian and Asian communities.
