A rather blustery 'Worsdall Wednesday' today, and I'm not sure if we're in Glasgow or downtown Moscow?

This fabulous onion-dome once graced the Rutland House lodging house on Govan Road.

Rev McMillan, white-haired, trim white beard, in dog collar, almost smiling - looking happier than the average Scottish minister.

The most interesting resident was the Rev Robert McMillan, son of an Irish weaver. He was instrumental in the revival of Strathbungo Church. Some of the congregation were so frustrated by the previous minister, ageing and infirm, that they founded a neighbouring parish, Queen’s Park.

A new house history – 6 Queen Square, Strathbungo. Home to two Reverends, a doctor, a manufacturer of dog-eared spikes (they sound a bit crap, but essential for railways apparently), then for 60 years a lawyer’s family.

🎬 Community Film Screening with Maryhill Against Racism 🎬

We are hosting a community screening of Everybody to Kenmure Street (12A), a powerful film capturing the events when neighbours in Pollokshields came together in peaceful solidarity to stop an immigration raid. Through immersive footage...

The last days of the old subway, photographed in the early months of 1977. The system would close in May of that year for a much needed modernisation which would see this station, Copland Road, renamed to Ibrox.

"Langside" drawn by TCF Brotchie for his "The Battlefields of Scotland". Fileds in foreground, recreation ground with footballers in mid ground, Camphill and flagpole in distance. Victoria Infirmary just visible to left, large house in centre. Music illustrated blaring from the bandstand, as rays projecting into the sky.

Just discovered this delightful view of Queens Park from c 1913, with the flagpole in the centre background. Noise is shown coming from the bandstand to the right. The Victoria infirmary is visible to the left. The large house in the centre...

Ice cream and raspberry sauce, pick ’n’ mix, music playing, and a steady flow of people in and out. You’d stop by before the pictures or for a chat.

Rig and Furrow on proximity

In the heart of Queens Park, Glasgow, the bones of medieval agriculture are still clear to the eye and easily felt underfoot. This month's essay weaves my discovery of old rig and furrow - and its legacy of collective care - with the realisation of my own garden's season of isolation. #naturewriting

Still getting to know this place rather slowly..?

Looking for some #Glasgow goodness to fill the void?
