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.

The former Barony North Church on Cathedral Sqaure as seen from the Glasgow Necropolis. This church was designed by John Honeyman in an Italianate Baroque style and built in 1878.

The arches and windows of the fabulous Ca d'Oro building in Glasgow. Originally built as a furniture warehouse in 1872, it was designed by John Honeyman in the Venetian Renaissance style, and was inspired by the Ca d'Oro (the Golden House) in Vence.

John Honeyman's 1881 Belhaven-Westbourne Church in the west end of Glasgow. Built in the classical renaissance style, this is a wonderfully impressive structure. It's tucked away from the main roads and so is easily overlooked, but it well worth seeking out.
