I love this bit of brickwork in the Garnethill area of Glasgow. It's a glazed brick wall with a curved corner transitioning to a sharp right-angle mid-way through a single brick, and it's apparently called a Lark's Tongue. I've no idea if it bears any resemblance to an actual lark's tongue!

A much-extended former Classical style mansion on Scott Street in the Garnethill area of Glasgow. Re-designed by James Sellars, the sculpture over the door of a mother and child reveals it was the site of the first dedicated children's hospital in the city.

The rather brilliantly named Normal School for the Training of Teachers in Garnethill in Glasgow. Designed by D. and J. Hamilton and built in 1837, it was the first institution in Britain specifically set up to train professional teachers.
