Situated in the Dutch Quarter, where Flemings settled, Stockwell Street still has some good medieval houses.The gabled Stockwell Arms seen opposite still exists—in 1866 the bellringers of St Peter's
The Stockwell Streets are the heart of what is known as the Dutch Quarter, a recent name for the area in which Flemish weavers settled around 1600.
All except the building on the far left survive now, although Daniell and Sons is now The Stockwell Arms pub.
The medieval fair was held at the upper end of the High Street (Townhead), but as the town began to spread southward, the fair moved to the north bank of the Clyde, near the Stockwell.
Other narrower and more winding streets and lanes lead off these, such as West Stockwell Street or Culver Street.
