An old road surface on South Woodside Road leading under the Great Western Road Bridge in the Kelvinbridge area of Glasgow. This leads down to where the Woodside Paper Mill stood (a site now occupied by a car park for the subway station) until around 1890.

While sections of wooden paving survive in London, I've never come across another example in Glasgow. The terrace itself was built in the 1850s, and it may well represent the original street surface in this area. Only a few of these wooden setts have survived and will soon disappear once more when the new modern road surface is laid on top of them.
Metal kerb guards on Renfield Lane in Glasgow. These were fitted to prevent the wheels of horse-drawn wagons damaging the kerb stones as they passed along the cobbled streets
Cobbled streets, like Regent Moray Street in the West End of Glasgow, are nice, but it's important the stone setts are replace properly after any work is carried out on utilities beneath them, rather than just randomly chucking them back into a poorly filled hole as seems have been the case here!
