While it's now far from the edge of the Clyde, it marks what was once the northern end of the West Basin of Yorkhill Quay (see maps) before it was filled in in the 1980s.

I was intrigued by the re-appearance of this cast-iron mooring point during the current excavation work next to the car park of the Riverside Museum in Glasgow.

The Riverside Museum is worth a visit, with many exhibits, displays and Glasgow-based facts and information to find out more about. It’s also worth taking a minute to appreciate that exterior though… a striking building for sure!

After a beautiful spring day here in Glasgow, the Clyde looked just as beautiful at nightfall, with the sunset reflecting off the modern buildings of the city's waterfront.

Photo of inside of Glasgow Transport Museum, with a buses and trams shown
Looking for photo of bronze statue of tram with wings, possibly to commemorate the last service in Glasgow, that used to be displayed in transport museum in Glasgow before it's move to current venue. Also, info on artist and current whereabouts.

The Tall Ship, the Glenlee, moored on the River Clyde beside the Riverside Museum in Glasgow. The image shows a three masted sailing ship with a grey and red hull with black and white upper parts. The masts are in yellow. The ship is moored to a quay, which extends to the right, as far as part of the Riverside Museum.
The Tall Ship, the amazing Glenlee, moored on the River Clyde beside the Riverside Museum in Glasgow, not all that far from where she was built in 1896. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

The irony, of course, is that the Riverside Museum in home to Glasgow's transport museum, and there had previously been talk about seeing if these lines could be used to run a heritage tram along this section of the waterfront.

They've been removed as part of work currently going on between the old Queen's Dock Hydraulic Pump house and the Riverside Museum. Until this happened, this was probably the longest surviving stretch of tram lines left in the city.

Old tram lines (I think) running along the north bank of the Clyde in Glasgow photographed January 2025 (top), and the same lines photographed today.

The Glasgow Transport Museum's Infinite Velodrome. This is a metal Möbius Strip hanging from the ceiling of Zaha Hadid's magnificent Riverside Museum building displaying all sorts of bicycles from different eras of cycling.

Good morning, Glasgow, and what a way to start the day! This was this morning's sunrise looking up the Clyde from the city's Riverside Museum.

Another quiz of the day! What is this object pictured at the Riverside Museum, Glasgow? I had no idea.
Answer: it’s a microwave oven from 1959 by Husqvana.

Sunset at Zaha Hadid's 2011 Riverside Museum on Pointhouse Quay in Glasgow. Reflected in the lower window is the 2024 Govan-Partick Pedestrian bridge, with the buildings of Govan beyond that.

These two pictures represent 128 years of the Glasgow subway. A first generation car, which served from 1896 to 1977, when they were replaced by the second generation example, which were only phased out last year.

The Riverside Museum and the Glenlee, seen from the (almost) new Govan-Partick footbridge, on a rather dull day.

With the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness well underway here in Glasgow, I thought I'd re-post one of my favourite photos of the city wrapped in Autumnnal fog.

Good morning, Glasgow. One of the things I love about this time of year is that I get to see the sunrise on my way to do the school run. This is what it was like today looking up the Clyde from the Riverside Museum.

The Glenlee, Glasgow's tall ship, as nightfalls. This shot was taken a while ago, but I came across it today when looking for another photo, and liked it enough to re-post it.
