Provan Hall is an A listed medieval building, dating back to 1470s, located in Auchinlea Park, which sits at the heart of Easterhouse. The building has undergone a £2m restoration by Glasgow City Council that will safeguard this important heritage asset as a new hub for heritage, arts and creative learning and engagement, and a visitor gateway to the Seven Lochs Wetland Park.

Following its restoration, Provan Hall is managed and operated by the Provan Hall Community Management Trust. The aim of the Trust is to engage and inspire local people to value and take part in caring for their local heritage.
