I love this mural by Smug on Mitchell Street in central Glasgow, and I've been known to spend way too much time waiting for some unsuspecting person to be pass through exactly the right spot to take a photo of it!

Wylie and Lockhead ghost signs on Mitchell Street in Glasgow. Starting as coffin-makers in 1829, by the 1890s Wylie and Lockhead had become the largest cabinet-makers in Scotland. They were incorporated into the House of Fraser Department Store in the 1950s.

This was around the 1870s, but gradually over time it was nibbled away as new buildings until by the 1940s it was pretty much gone. However, bits of it can still be glimpsed where a building has been demolished at the southern end of Mitchell Street and you can see through to the rears of the buildings on Union Street.

I was intrigued by this sign I spotted on Mitchell Street in Glasgow yesterday, mostly because I'd never heard of Union Court before and couldn't find it on any current map of Glasgow. Looking back at older maps, it seems Union Court was an area betwen the backs of the buildings of Mitchell Street and Union Street with access on to both of these and Argyle Street to the south.

This mural on Mitchell Street by Rogue One seemed an appropriate one for today's weather in Glasgow.
