In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Jordanhill like this:
Jordanhill, a village near the NE border of Renfrew parish, Renfrewshire, within 9 furlongs of the N bank of the Clyde, and 2½ miles WSW of Maryhill. The Jordanhill estate, extending into the Lanarkshire section of Govan parish, comprises only 293 acres, but has a value of £4220 per annum, including £3000 for its abundant coal, which is worked by the Monkland Iron and Steel Co.—Ord. Sur., sh. 30, 1866.
