Early 1900s Free Style tenement on Great Western Road in the Anniesland area of Glasgow. Designed in a similar style to Anniesland Mansions which stand opposite and were probably designed by H. Campbell.

No. 4 Gasholder at the former Temple Gas Works in west of Glasgow. Built by the Barrowfield Ironworks Ltd for the Corporation of Glasgow Gas Department. It's 41.5 metres high and about 73 metres in diameter. When in use, it had three telescopic steel shells which would rise and fall as the volume of gas stored in it changed, ensuring a consistent pressure to the local gas supply.

Crow Road Tenement. Part of Anniesland Mansions in the West of the Glasgow, there's just something timelessly elegant about buildings like this.

The former Knightswood Bus Depot office building on Great Western Road in Glasgow. Built in 1932, in a Moderne style, it served the west of Glasgow for seventy two years before finally being closed in 2004. It's rooftop clock is a particularly nice detail.

I love this tenement on Fulton Street in the Temple area of Glasgow. It's built like a fortress with the chimney stacks providing anchor points for the railings of the rooftop drying greens.

I always admire these flats at Anniesland Cross whenever I pass them. Built with Art Deco touches in the late 1930s/early 1940s by the Glasgow Corporation Housing Department, they contrast sharply with the 1960s Brutalist high rise just across the road.

Decorative stone from Kiloran House set into a wall of Glasgow Clyde College Anniesland on Hatfield Drive in the west of Glasgow. Designed by Stewart and Paterson, Kiloran House was constructed in 1905 and was demolished in 2007. I'm presuming these are the initials of James Thomson Tullis, for whom it was originally built, and this and a couple of other similar carved stones are the only traces left of this once grand house.

Anniesland Court in Glasgow. Designed by Jack Holmes and Partners, this twenty-two storey tower block is a classic example of post-war Brutalist achitecture. It's also the tallest listed building in Scotland.

An imposing Edwardian red sandstone villa on Great Western Road in Glasgow. It was constructed around 1903 in the Scottish Recival Style from a design by Fryers and Penman, and is part of development of similar villas running alongside the road.
