An old French no parking sign in a back lane in the Broomhill area of the city. Why? Because that's Glasgow for you.

The former Broomhill Congregational Church on Victoria Park Gardens South in the west of Glasgow. Designed by J.J. Burnet in the gothic style, this church and its associated buildings were constructed between 1903 and 1907.

Love these windows on William McNicol Whyte's 1902 tenements on Marlborough Avenue in the Broomhill area of Glasgow. It's unusual to see oriel windows mixed with normal windows in this way.

A fine example of a wally close in the Broomhill area of Glasgow. A wally close is a tiled a commununal stairwell a Glasgow tenement, with the word wally being a Scots word for anything made from ceramics or china. This can include wally dugs (china dogs), and wallies (or false teeth). This, in itself, is derived from an older meaning of anything fancy, splendid or highly decorative.

Early 1900s red sandstone tenement on Marlborough Avenue in the Broomhill area of Glasgow. I like the slight crenellation on the top of the end tower of the tenements in this block. The curved sills under the central windows are also a nice touch.
