The deadly blaze broke out on the morning of November 18, 1968.
On November 18, 1968, a fire in an upholstery factory claimed 22 lives. It would go down in history as Glasgow's deadliest blaze.
Twenty bodies were found behind a padlocked entrance. Two more men who worked for another company were found in the basement. Connie McCulloch, whose mother Freda died in the fire, was too young at the time to know exactly what happened to her mum, but later learned of her tragic fate. The fire, eight years after the devastating Cheapside Street blaze that killed 14 firemen and five salvage corps men, led to a series of changes to strengthen health and safety legislation.
