The tunnel-like boys entrance to the former Rockvilla Public School on Dawson Road in Glasgow.

This school was designed by John Honeyman and was built in the 1870s. An impressive building set high on a hill overlooking the Forth and Clyde Canal, the B Listed building was badly damaged by fire in 1995 and was demolished in 1996.

A view inside Alexander 'Greek' Thomson's Caledonia Road Church on the southside of Glasgow. Built in the Neoclassical Greek Revival style in the 1850s, it was burned down in 1965, and only the tower and facades remain standing. These received A-list protection in 1966, but are still considered at risk of being lost

The once-imposing facade of the former Calton Police Station in the east end of Glasgow. Designed by John Carrick and opened in 1869, it contained offices, a muster hall, a court room, mortuary and 30 cells at the back.

Despite being B Listed, this building is considered at risk of being lost. Parts of its roof have already fallen in and it's generally in a very poor state of repair.
