The clock tower of the former Normal School for the Training of Teachers in Garnethill in Glasgow. It was designed by D and J Hamilton and was built in 1837.

The former Royal Glasgow Cancer Hospital at 132 Hill Street in the Garnethill Area of Glasgow. This was the first hospital of its kind in Scotland and it continues to this day as the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre on Great Western Road.

The dome on the top of the former Garnethill branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank. Unlike most other similar domes on Glasgow buildings, this one is made of stone rather than metal. All in all a beautiful bit of carftsmanship.

The Garnethill branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank on New City Road. It was design by Neil C Duff in an Edwarding Baroque style and was built in 1909. It's a beautiful building with a hidden secret: Roof top gardens that were originally elevated drying greens.

What I'm presuming is an original, and rather beautiful, acid-etched window design on the former Garnethill branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank on New City Road. It was created by Neil C Duff and was built in 1909.

Chookie Burdies by Shona Kinloch. Created in 1993, these are a collection of over 150 aluminium pigeons perched on the top of street lights in the Garnethill area of Glasgow.
