Globe and anchor sculpture, signifying Glasgow's global maritime trade, on the 1888 facade of the former South Branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank on Bridge Street. I think they're surrounded by oak branches, presumably indicating knowledge.

Love this decorative ironwork on the former Savings Bank on Bridge Street in Glasgow. This branch was built in 1888 as an insert into the ground and first floor of an older mid-19th Century tenement.

Ilford HP5 Plus 400

NOTE: I’ll begin this experience report with a brief disclaimer. It’s been less than two years since I returned to shooting 35mm film after switching to digital photography over 20 years ago. Between web articles and advice from experienced 35mm film photographers, I’ve inundated myself with as much 35mm film education as possible for now.…

87 Carlton Place in Glasgow. Built in 1857 and designed by John Burnet Senior, as the coat of arms at the top suggests, it was originally home to a branch of the Bank of Scotland.

🤫 Unofficially, I've been told the stench 💩 is a result of "over pressure" 🚽 on the sewage pipes, caused by excessive conversion of buildings into flats⁉️

There’s never a bus when you want one, and suddenly four come along when you least expect it. A very busy Bridge Street in Cork last week with commuters on the way home.

🤔 Q: So what about those organisations who are renting out space within it❓

🤷🏻‍♀️ Where's the money gone and what's gone wrong❓🤔
➡️ In 2020, the Council purchased the building, as part of the £13m Vine development, promising it would become a community hub offering business and education facilities.
➡️ In 2023, PCC announced they'd be selling the building.
➡️ In July 2024, the Council claimed they were in talks with a prospective buyer, to sell the former TK Maxx premises?

The demolition of the 1876 India Building on Bridge Street in Glasgow. You can now see through to the connected 1920s Art Deco building on the neighbouring Oxford Street, which at the start of the 2000s was home to the Chateau, an arts venue and practice space for the band Franz Ferdinand.

Former Commercial Bank of Scotland building with tenements above it on Bridge Street in Glasgow. Built in 1884, it was probably designed by Bruce and Hay.

I've always found this a rather striking tenement. On the corner of Bridge Street and Kingston Street in Glasgow, it was probably designed by Bruce and Hay and was built in 1884 for the Commercial Bank of Scotland, with flats above the ground floor business premises.

This building stands almost directly opposite another of Miller's creations (a Glasgow Style tenement built in 1898 which I posted a photo of yesterday), giving an indication the breadth of his capabilities.

The new Bridge Street Station in Glasgow. Designed by James Miller and opened in 1890, it replaced the original Bridge Street Station further north on the south bank of the Clyde. It closed in 1905 after the expansion Glasgow Central Station on the north side of the Clyde.
