Inside the remains of the Springburn Winter Gardens. Designed by the hothouse builders Simpson and Farmer, with iron work by William Baird of Temple ironworks, it was built in 1899. It fell out of use after it was damaged by a storm in 1983, and was almost demolished in 1985. However, it was saved after being given A-listed status due to its architectural importance. However, it remains derelict and is considered critically at risk.
