This Is My GlasgowI've always loved the quality of this Glasgow Coat of Arms on the front of Saint Andrew's Parish Church (and with the building datung fron the mid 1700s, it must be one of the oldest in the city), but what's with the troll at the bottom?

The royal coat of arms of Scotland on the front of the old Kelvin House building on Otago Street in the west end of Glasgow (which now houses, amongst other businesses, the CC Music Shop).
Despite a lot of digging, I've failed to find out what this large and colourful crest is doing here as there seems to be no obvious royal connection. Does anyone out there know?

Unusual coat of arms on a building on the corner of Buchanan Street and Gordon Street in Glasgow. I love the Celtic-style knotwork formed by the tails of the two dragons.
