Two-tone tenements on Clifford Street in the Ibrox area of Glasgow. Local legend has it this effect is due to the builders running out of one colour of sandstone and completing the building with another. However, it seems much more likely that this was a conscious design choice to use harder red sandstone on the ground flooor, where most wear was likely to occur, and the softer blonde sandstone above.

The same two-tone approach can be seen on many bank buildings constructed around the same time, where ultra hard-wearing granite was often used to face the ground floor walls, while sandstone was used for the upper ones.

Mafeking Street in the Ibrox area of Glasgow. It might be named after a South African town where there was siege during the Boer War, but it has a very different meaning when pronounced with a Glaswegian accent!

A rather attractive and unusual Glasgow style former brush factory on Copland Road on the Ibrox area of Glasgow. Designed by James Chalmers, it was built in 1897 for the wholesale and export brushmaker William Morier. It was converted into flats in 1988 by the architect David Murray.
