Partick (Scots: Pairtick, Scottish Gaelic: Partaig) is an area of Glasgow on the north bank of the River Clyde.
Partick has been used as a location in numerous film and TV shows including Trainspotting, Carla's Song, Shetland, My Name is Joe, Still Game, Scot Squad, The Steamie, Taggart, Death Watch and Batgirl.
Partick is also the hometown of the Scottish comedian and actor Billy Connolly.
Partick remained a village until the middle of the 18th century. The Kings of Strathclyde had a residence there, and in 1136 David I (1124–1153) granted the lands of Perdyc to the see of Glasgow. The Bishops of Glasgow had a country seat in Partick. It was later the site of Partick Castle, a country home of George Hutcheson (demolished 1836). The burgh, which had its headquarters at Partick Burgh Hall, was annexed by Glasgow in 1912.
