Good morning, Glasgow. It's another fabulous morning in the city by the Clyde.

Good morning Glasgow! What a morning to be out enjoying the city. The sun's out, river's calm, and the building's are looking spectacular!

It's certainly very similar in style and detail to Grassby's known Father Clyde on the nearby 30 Saint Vincent Place.

I love this 1860s keystone head by Charles Grassby over the entrance to the former Junior Conservative Club on West George Street in Glasgow.
I can't find any record of what it represents, but the fish on his head and the anchor entwined in his beard suggest it could be Father Clyde, the mythological embodiment of the river on which Glasgow's fortune was built.

Father Clyde on the Clydebank Building on Saint Vincent Place in Glasgow. I love the fish poking out of his beard, and the pair in his hair holding up a ring. These were details I only noticed when looking back at the photograph.
Such representations of the Clyde and other rivers seem to be relatively common on keystones of Glasgow buildings.

Scotland has several "Newark Castles". This one can be found overlooking the River Clyde in Port Glasgow, immediately to the east of one of the river's few remaining active shipyards. Parts of it date back to around 1480. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/portglasgow/newarkcastle/index.html

Carving of HMS Agamemnon on a Clydebank tenement at 421 Dumbarton Road.
Built by William Beardmore and Company at the Dalmuir Naval Construction Works, HMS Agamemnon was the largest warship built on the Clyde at the time it was launched in 1906.

A ship passing the remains of the Lang Dyke opposite Dumbarton Rock as it heads down the Clyde from Glasgow and out to sea.
This is impressive bit of engineering was built by John Golborne in the 1770s as part of efforts to create a deep water channel all the up to Glasgow. It still helps keep the channel open to shipping to this day.

Feels like a good day to be taking pictures from the Erskine Bridge. Sadly, I wasn't there today, but I was a few years ago. I still remember the jumbo broccoli plantations.

A tale of two cities: Two shots from the Bell's Bridge in Glasgow both taken at 9:34 this morning, one looking upstream towards the city and one looking downstream towards the Science Centre and Riverside Museum.

Emblem of the Glasgw Humane Society on its headquarters on Glasgow Green.
Founded in 1790, Glasgow Humane Society aims to preserve human life in and around the waterways of Greater Glasgow.
Amongst other things, these are the people who retrieve and replace life belts along the Clyde when idiots needlessly throw these important pieces of life-saving equipment into the water.

The Govan Docks are an important part of Glasgow's beligerant, proud working class history. But unfortunately they are also a mouth-watering location for building luxury houses for rich parasites. Property swindlers want to gentrify the fuck out of them, but they will not have it easy. Join the people trying to keep them public! Also, this looks like great fun. #GovanDocks #Gentrification #Glasgow #Govan #GiroBabies #gigs #PublicSpaces #RiverClyde #WorkingClass
