Today's animals from Glasgow's architecture are these dolphinfish supporting a lamp on the Kelvin Way Bridge on the west end of the city.

Decorative metalwork on the Albert Bridge in Glasgow. Built in 1868 to a design by Bell and Miller, it's the only substantial wrought-iron arched bridge in Scotland.

Lion's foot leg on the bottom of a cast iron lamp outside the Royal Scottish Automobile Club building on Blytheswood Square in Glasgow.
I would imagine if you stripped off all the layers of thick black paint which have been added over the years, the underlying sculpture would look much more detailed and crisp.

Love these railings I came across in the west end of Glasgow today. They're an eye-catching design and I haven't yet seen it elsewhere in the city.

I of course said I could make them one.
Today, I checked my axe-eye drift against a full size axe, and it is too small (good for hatchets though); so it was off to the stock pile to see what I had to make a new drift.
I settled on some cultivator tine springs. They're about 40mm x 20mm in size, and made of presumably spring steel. Whatever it is, it takes a LOT of effort to forge it. I'm buggered, and I've only got it in a rough shape.

I love this taxi lamp outside the Corinthian Club on Ingram Street in Glasgow, but it has always slightly confused me as to why it's there.

Bootscarpers of Pollokshields in Glasgow.
These pieces of street furniture would have once been found at the entrance to most town houses and many tenement closes. You can still find them outside buildings across the city, but the design in the bottom left is not one I've seen elsewhere. Thanks to Harjam10 on Twitter for bringing it to my attention.

Ornate lamp featuring the Glasgow Coat of Arms over the entrance to a tenement close in the Strathbungo area of the city.
Such lamps usually signify that an occupant of a building is (if there's two) or once was (if there's just one) the Lord Provost of Glasgow.

Love this piece of decorative metalwork on an old Bank of Scotland building by Shawlands Cross in Glasgow.

There's also some very impressive guilded metalwork on the front elevation of 90 Saint Vincent Street in Glasgow. As far as I can work out, this was part of Campbell's origibal 1908 design.

Ornate ironwork lamp outside the former Saint Andew's Hall on Granville Street in Glasgow. This building was designed by James Sellars and was built in 1877. It burned down in 1962, and only the facade remains. It is now part of the Mitchell Library.

Bootscrapers of Park Circus in the west end of Glasgow. Bootscrapers are very basic, functional item of metalwork, but I love all the different ways they've been made to look a bit more fancy. These have presumably been individually selected from a catelogue of designs by the first residents of each building.

Alexander 'Greek' Thomson Street Lamp standard on Queen's Drive on the south side of Glasgow. I love the details on the metalwork on this. Very typically 'Greek' Thomson. I wonder how many people walk past this each day without even realising what it is?
