A plaque marking the birthplace of Charles Rennie MacKintosh, probably Glasgow's most famous architect, in the Townhead area of the city in June 1868. In the 1890s, MacKintosh returned to the area to design the Saint Martyr's school which would have been visible from the tenement where he was born. While the school remains, the tenement itself is now long gone.
