Absolutely love this new mural on the Kelvin Walkway in Glasgow beside Inn Deep. It's by John Murray.

The North Woodside Flint Mill on the Kelvin Walkway in Glasgow.
Dating from the 1700s, this water-powered mill served a number of different functions over the years, including milling chalk to extract flint nodules.
While it's now ruined, much of it is still visible, including the remains of a giant kiln, which can be seen in the background of this image.
The mill stones in the foreground were brought to this site from elsewhere.

For the first time in a while, my morning dog walk took me past the Glasgow Penguins and their neighbours, the Snails on the Rails. Nice to see they're still there.

The remains of the original Queen Margaret Bridge over the River Kelvin in Glasgow. This cast iron bridge was built in 1870 by John Ewing Walker to provide access between the new neighbourhood of Kelvinside (now referred to as North Kelvinside) which he was developing and the main thoroughfare of Great Western Road on the other side of rhe Kelvin.

A walk along Kelvin Walkway in Glasgow this afternoon revealed yet another interesting piece of unofficial public art thanks to Richard.

I haven't posted a picture of the Glasgow Penguins on the Kelvin Walkway in Glasgow for a while, so here's a cute one of some skateboarding penguins who appeared recently.

Old bricks at the former Flint Mill on the Kelvin Walkway in the west end of Glasgow. The lettering on them indicates they were made at the Boghead Fireclay Works in Bathgate between 1889 and 1930.

The weir for the North Woodside Flint Mill on the River Kelvin in Glasgow.
Built in 1846, the weir created a pool reaching up as far as Ha'penny Bridge. Water was drawn from this pool along a shallow channel before it passed through a tunnel under the mill and back into the Kelvin. A wheel reached down into this tunnel and was turned by the water flowing underneath to provide power for the mill.

Some more fun little sculptures have joined the psychedelic snails on the railings opposite the wall where the penguins have taken up residence on the Kelvin Walkway in Glasgow. They certainly livens up the morning dog walk!

Looks like the penguins in the wall by the old Flint Mill on the Kelvin Walkway in Glasgow are enjoying a good read in today's sunshine.
