ThingsToDoRoman history and a park pause
A focused archaeological visit with town refreshments and a short outdoor break.
A local play and green-space break / BEARSDEN
Colquhoun Park
Use Colquhoun Park for an easy-going outdoor break, with space for a short wander or age-appropriate play. Its wetland features also show how an ordinary town park can manage heavy rainfall and support wildlife. This is a useful addition to a small Bearsden outing rather than a destination that needs a packed full-day itinerary.

Before you go
The wetland areas have a practical flood-management role. Stay on suitable paths and do not treat the water as a paddling or skating facility.
