The dome and finial of Partick Cross Mansions in Glasgow.

Partick has a great collection of traditional red and blonde sandstone tenements that are always well worth checking out. Just remember to look up to see their full beauty.

The rather elegant logo of the Automatic Telephone Manufacturing Company on a manhole cover in Broomhill in Glasgow. This means it was installed between 1911 and 1932, making it around 100 years old. I guess sometimes it pays to look down as well as up in Glasgow!

I've been going to Kelvingrove Art Gallery in Glasgow since I was a kid, but I only noticed these wonderfully ornate cast iron vent covers for the first time the other day.

It just goes to show that Glasgow always has something new to offer, no matter how well you think you know it!

I pass the Sandyford Henderson Memorial Church in the west end of Glasgow several times a day. This afternoon was the first time I'd ever noticed this bat in its stonework!

It just goes to show that no matter how famiiar you are with Glasgow and its buildings, there's always new things to discover.
