C.R.Mackintosh's Scotland Street School, Glasgow, Scotland
For those interested in architecture, this was Mackintosh's last public commission in Glasgow. He reversed tradition and gave the towers with conical roofs walls of glass with narrow stone mullions. Instead of spiral stairs, he used straight flights which benefited from the light which streams into them. He played off verticality of the towers with the horizontal nature of the rest of the building.

Glasgow is a port city on the River Clyde in Scotland's western Lowlands. It's famed for its Victorian and art nouveau architecture, a rich legacy of the city's 18th–20th-century prosperity due to trade and shipbuilding. Today it's a national cultural hub, home to institutions including the Scottish Opera, Scottish Ballet and National Theatre of Scotland, as well as acclaimed museums and a thriving music scene.
Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland, and third largest in the United Kingdom. Historically part of Lanarkshire, it is now one of the 32 council areas of Scotland. Glasgow is situated on the River Clyde in the country's West Central Lowlands. Inhabitants of the city are referred to as Glaswegians.
Glasgow grew from a small rural settlement on the River Clyde to become the largest seaport in Britain. Expanding from the medieval bishopric and royal burgh, and the later establishment of the University of Glasgow in the 15th century, Glasgow became a major centre of the Scottish Enlightenment in the 18th century. From the 18th century the city also grew as one of Great Britain's main hubs of transatlantic trade with North America and the West Indies.
With the onset of the Industrial Revolution, the population and economy of Glasgow and the surrounding region expanded rapidly to become one of the world's pre-eminent centres of chemicals, textiles and engineering; most notably in the shipbuilding and marine engineering industry, which produced many innovative and famous vessels. Glasgow was the Second City of the British Empire for much of the Victorian era and Edwardian period, although many cities argue the title was theirs.
Glasgow hosted the 2014 Commonwealth Games and is also well known in the sporting world for the football rivalry of the Old Firm between Celtic and Rangers. Glasgow is also known for Glasgow patter, a distinct dialect that is noted for being difficult to understand by those from outside the city.
Glasgow has a large urban transport system, mostly managed by the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT). The city has many bus services; since bus deregulation almost all are provided by private operators though SPT part-funds some services. The principal bus operators within the city are: First Glasgow, McGill's Buses, Stagecoach West Scotland and Glasgow Citybus. The main bus terminal in the city is Buchanan bus station.
Glasgow has the most extensive urban rail network in the UK outside of London with rail services travelling to a large part of the West of Scotland.

Scotland Street School disused toilets, Glasgow, Scotland HL Shires
A former school in Glasgow built in 1906 which I now open as a museum with free entry. The school had closed in 1979 n amongst it's features include the separate playgrounds for boys and girls with toilets at the end.
The girls' toilets can just about be seen and feature up to 12 toilets which are mostly ruined but a number of HL Shires remain with front overflows.
Kelvingrove Park Glasgow
kelvingrove was originally created as the West End Park in 1852 by noted English gardener Sir Joseph Paxton, Head Gardener at Chatsworth House, whose other works included The Crystal Palace in London. The Town Council had purchased the land, which formerly represented the Kelvingrove and Woodlands estates, that year for the sum of £99,569,[1] around £8 million today.[2] The park was intended to provide for the continued expansion of the city to the west, providing relaxation and recreation opportunities for the new middle class to the west, and an escape from the rapid slumming of the city centre for those left behind.
The park is 34 hectares (85 acres) in size,[1] and located in the West End of Glasgow. It straddles the River Kelvin shortly before the river's confluence with the Clyde, and as such is an urban haven for wildlife. Birds found in the area include the grey heron, cormorant, and kingfisher, the mallard and goosander, and other animals include the red fox, brown rat and otters.[5] The park is flanked to the West by Gilmorehill and the University of Glasgow, to the South by Partick and Anderston, to the East by Charing Cross and to the North by Hillhead and Woodlands. This central location makes it a popular route for commuters to the city centre, leading quickly from the West End to Charing Cross whilst avoiding traffic. The park is also popular with dog-walkers, and students from the university.
Kelvingrove sits around the contours of a large hill, on which is sited the Park district of Glasgow. This was formerly a highly desirable residential area before falling out of fashion and being taken over mostly for office space and student accommodation. However, recent high-class residential developments there have made living in the area much more appealing. The area is also home to 22 Park Circus, the city's registry office, and to the Glasgow branch of the Goethe-Institut, a German culture institution.
Kelvinbridge subway station and bus routes provide access to the park.

What is the Glasgow Style?
We take a closer look at the distinct style of Art Nouveau emerging from the city of Glasgow in the 1890s.
Rocking the Cradle of Scotland
The Cradle of Scotland was a museum exhibition generated by the 10-year long research project into the archaeology in the heart of Scotland, the Strathearn Environs & Royal Forteviot project ( Although opened at the 2015 EAA Annual meeting in Glasgow, it was oriented to a popular audience which could not be expected to be familiar with technical archae ological evidence. The project was a multi period study including landscape survey and numerous excavation and has generated data spanning 5000 years. In order to engage with a range of audiences and communicate different kinds of information we drew upon a techniques including the reproduction of artefacts, the recreation of a Bronze Age burial, scale drawings of sculpture reproduced life size, 3D digital animations of sculpture scans and detailed paintings illustrating key moments in narratives of different sites.
The exhibition provided a great stimulus for interpreting the site and allowed us to work with a range of and interpretative artists, from traditional archaeological illustrators to re-enactors and digital designers. The exhibition generated a series of striking and successful representations of the discoveries. This paper provides the first public opportunity to reflect on questions about authenticity, accuracy and accessibility raised by these efforts following their exposure to audiences. This paper also constitutes a step in critical process leading to the final academic publication of the results of the study.
