Love the two different ancient Greek style friezes above and below this tenement bay window in the North Kelvinside area of Glasgow. The lower one features anthenion or stylised palm fronds, while the upper one features a repeated geometric design.

1860s blonde sandstone tenement on Clouston Street in the North Kelvinside area of Glasgow. The asymetrical position of the door is unusual for a period where symmetry was the preferred trend in architecture.

The Forth and Clyde Canal in the north of Glasgow. Designed by John Smeaton and constructed between 1768 and 1790, it allowed goods and ships to move from the North Sea to the North Atlantic without having the pass through the treacherous waters along the North of Scotland. It was the world's first man-made sea-to-sea canal, making it the forerunner of canals like the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal.
