Great weather yesterday for the Berrisdale Allotments Annual Open Day -- and amazing sights and smells! Beautiful blooms, and delicious looking vegetables whose size suggested genetic modification (spoiler: they weren't!). An excellent afternoon.

This churches graveyard contains the tomb of the Polmadie Martyrs, shot in 1685 for supporting the Covenanters, as well as monuments designed by Alexander 'Greek' Thomson and possibly Robert Adam.

The tower of Old Cathcart Pariah Church in Glasgow.
Designed by James Dempster in Modern Gothic style and built in 1831, this church replaced an earlier building constructed in 1707. Most of the church was demolished in 1931, but the west front with its distinctive tower remain standing.

Love the shape of this window in the former New Cathcart Church in Glasgow. It was designed by John Bennie Wilson and was built in 1907.

I don't know what this little creature is, but it's very cute. It's above the close entrance to a tenement on Garry Street in Cathcart in Glasgow.

The Green Man, a mythological figure who is a symbol of rebirth and spring, over a tenement doorway on Spean Street in Cathcart, Glasgow.
While not common, similar representations of The Green Man can be found on other Glasgow buildings.
