One of the rather beautiful buildings of the former Gartloch hosptial on the eastern edge of Glasgow, which has been renovated and brought back into use. Designed by Thomson and Sandilands in a French Renaissance style with Scottish Baronial details, it was built in the 1890s and closed in 1996.

The War Memorial Cottage in Gartcosh just to the east of Glasgow. Designed by Gavin Lennox, it was built as a memorial nurses home, and features two plaques listing the names of local residents who died in World War I (on the left hand gate pillar) and World War II (on the right hand one).

One of the renovated blocks at the former Gartloch hospital site on the eastern edge of Glasgow. Built in the 1890s in a French Renaissance style, it was designed by Thomson and Sandilands. This seems to be a good example of how to bring a former hospital building back into use as a modern residential development.
