Old photograph of houses on Cumbernauld Road in Stepps, on the north eastern outskirts of Glasgow, Scotland. Originally part of the Garnkirk estate, the name for the settlement appears to post date that of the main road through its centre, Steps Road, which was named in the 19th century and appended with a Steps Road railway station in the 1850s. The name and spelling Stepps only became accepted when the name of the station formally changed to Stepps in 1924.
