Some more wonderful Glasgow Tenement tiles. These are from a close in North Kelvinside.

A Glasgow Corporation Lighting Department ghost sign at the entrance to a tenement close on High Street in Glasgow, featuring a phone number with the BELL extension of the nearby Bell Telephone Exchange, which opened in 1936.

Love this ghost sign painted on a wall beside the entrance to a tenement on West Princes Street in the Woodlands area of Glasgow. It's repeated again on the neighbouring close as well. They're right next to a former military drill hall, and I wonder if the warning is related to its presence. There is a certain irony to having a sign written on a wall which says that writing on walls is not allowed!

I don't know quite what was creating this silhouette on a window of a Glasgow tenement that I came across last night, but whatever it is, it sure looks like they're planning something!

A very simple, but fully functrional design for a bootscraper outside a tenement in the Woodlands area of Glasgow.

I haven't posted any tenement tiles in a while, so here's a beautiful set I came across today in the Partick area of Glasgow.

A wonderfully decorative Art Nouveau tile from the communal entrance of a red sandstone tenement in the Shawlands area of Glasgow.

Love the curve on this 1903 tenement building on Langside Avenue in the Battlefield area of Glasgow. It always makes me feel like I'm looking up at a lighthouse.

A beautiful tile from a tenement close in Shawlands on the southside of Glasgow. Throughout the close, most of the tiles are white, with just the occasional one like this to add a splash of colour and detail.

Another of Glasgow's wonderful gushet tenement buildings. This one, dating from 1858, is on corner of Argyle Street and Kent Road in the west end of the city. I particularly like the fact the architect still managed to squeeze in a bay window on such a narrow frontage!
