Round the corner from Wolfson, you'll find the affluent suburb of Bearsden. Bearsden features shops, supermarkets, restaurants and a train station. For history buffs, Bearsden is also home to the archaeological remains of the Antonine Wall which dates from around AD 140 and once marked the north-western frontier of the Roman Empire.
