I love this beautiful little church on Dalmarnock Road in the Bridgeton area of Glasgow. Originally built as an Evangelical Union Chuch in 1901, it was designed by J.C.

The distinctive open-crown topped spire of the 1886 Strathbungo Parish Church rising above the traditional sandstone tenements on Pollokshaws Road in Glasgow.
The imposing Romanesque Basilica style Church of the Sacred Heart on Dalmarnock Road in Glasgow. Designed by C.J. Menart, and built in 1909, to me, this is quite reminiscent of the early work by Jack Coia, such as his 1932 Saint Anne's Church in Dennistoun and his 1941 Saint Columba's Church in Woodside, and I wonder if it might have influenced his architectural development.

@thisismyglasgow I remember 50 yrs ago there was a sign fixed half way up the front elevation of the then Kelvinside Parish Church, now Òran Mór arts and entertainment venue, on the corner of Byres Rd and Great Western Rd in the West End of Glasgow. The sign was a protest indicating the height of the then proposed flyover at the top of Bryes Rd, one of many abandoned road proposals in the city. #glasgow#architecture#glasgowbuildings#church#glasgowchurch#byresroad#thisismyglasgow
