Partick
Partick (, (スコットランド・ゲール語:Pàrtaig)) is an area of Glasgow on the north bank of the River Clyde, just across from Govan. To the west lies Whiteinch and to the east, Hillhead and other areas which make up the west end of Glasgow. Partick was a Police burgh from 1852 until 1912 when it was incorporated into the city.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-19168940 )〕 〔(Second City of The Empire: 1830s to 1914 ) from theglasgowstory.com.

==History==
(詳細はStrathclyde had a residence there, and in 1136 David I (1124–53) 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).
It is thought the name comes from the Brythonic ''Peartoc'' (cf. Welsh ''perth'', "bush or thicket"). This was adopted into Scottish Gaelic as ''Peart(h)aig'', giving modern Gaelic ''Pearraig'' or ''Pàrtaig'' (the latter is used on signs at Partick railway station). Older anglicised forms include ''Perdyc'' and ''Perthick''. Partick, of old Perdyec, from the Gaelic ''aper dhu ec'', meaning the place at the confluence or mouth of the dark river.〔(Hugh Macintosh, Origin & History of Glasgow Street Names ), James Hedderwick & Sons.
