Abandoned in 🇬🇧

I climbed up behind the very tall altar, balancing on an old radiator and onto the narrow window ledge. This gave a very interesting vantage point to shoot my photos from, while balancing and shooting over the top of the altar.

Kinda looks like I am hovering several metres of the floor though, guess it offers a different perspective 🤣

Love this intricate Gothic Arch doorway, surrounded by relief sculptures of thistles and enclosing carved wooden doors on Glasgow University's main buildings.

The gothic turrets, chimneys and spires of the main Gilmorehill Campus buildings of Glasgow University. Designed by George Gilbert Scott and built in the second half of the 19th Century. By then, the universitt was already more than 400 years old.

South Shawlands Church in Glasgow.

Designed by Miller and Black and built in 1912, this church has an imposing Gothic style entrance with an extra wide door and a matching traceried window above it. Overall, it's a very simple, but very effective design.

There had been a church on this site since 1720, and buried its graveyard are a number of Glasgow's Tobacco Lords, including Andrew Buchanan and John Glassford, who made a fortune from trading tobacco grown on slave plantations in what is now the state of Virginia in the USA.

Gargoyles on Hillhead Kelvinside Parish Church in Glasgow against a deep blue sky. This church was designed by James Sellars in the French Gothic Style and was built in the 1870s.

The magnificent main entrance to Kelvinside Hillhead Parish Church in the west end of Glasgow. I paritcularly like the nested gothic arches around the doors and the massive wheel window above them.

Modelled on medieval Sainte-Chapelle in Paris, this church was designed by James Sellar and built in 1876.
