The former Battlefield Tram Shelter looking as magnificent as ever in yesterday's sunshine. Designed by Frank Burnet and Boston, and built in 1914, the original plan was to erect similar tram shelters across Glasgow. However, this was the only one which was ever built.

Battlefield Rest on Battlefield Road in Glasgow. This Edwardian-style tram shelter was designed by Frank Burnet and Boston, and was built in 1914.

It was constructed as prototype tram shelter for the Glasgow Tram Corporation and it was intended that similar shelters would be built across the ctiy. However, the outbreak of World War One resulted in these plans being delayed and eventually shelved permanently.
