In 1888, a separate our-patient department, known as the Sick Children's Hospital Dispensary, was opened a short distance away on West Graham Street (in a building that's now part of the Glasgow School of Art).

Funded by charitable donations, it received its first patient on the 8th of January 1883. At this time, it has just 58 beds, but included an isolation ward and an operating theatre on the top floor lit by gas lamps.

The rather brilliantly named Normal School for the Training of Teachers in Garnethill in Glasgow. Designed by D. and J. Hamilton and built in 1837, it was the first institution in Britain specifically set up to train professional teachers.

Another of the poems engraved into one of the flagstones of the viewing point at the end of Hill Street in the Garnethill area of Glasgow, along with part of the view you get from it of the spire of Saint Mary's Episcopal Cathedral.

I love this skinny little tenement on Renfrew Street in Glasgow. Such a narrow frontage, but the architect still managed to fit in not one, but two sets of bay windows!

Love these little bits of ceramic street art on various walls around the Garnethill area of Glasgow. They were put up as part of the St Aloysius College COP26 Sculpture Trail.

This is a brilliant piece of street art I came across on Scott Street in the Garnethill areq of Glasgow. Using the Artivive app on a smart phone, you can make it come to life. The piece is by Lenny and whale, and is a reminder that peace starts with us.

I've always found this view of it rather interesting because of its complexity and because of its complete lack of windows.

Since this time, similar community-based projects have been carried out across Glasgow, and indeed continue to this day.

The now-faded geometric mural on the left, which was selected by a public vote, was created by local Garnethill artist Tommy Lydon, while the mosaic mural just visible on the right was created with the help of local children.

This was one of the first community-based projects in Glasgow to create murals on exposed gable ends of the city's tenements as part of a scheme to improve the local environment.

What I'm presuming is an original, and rather beautiful, acid-etched window design on the former Garnethill branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank on New City Road. It was created by Neil C. Duff and was built in 1909.

Saint Andrew's Church on Renfrew Street in the Garnethill area of Glasgow. This is a beautiful little church, especially when lit like this by the morning sun.

It has some beatifully rounded corners, constructed using bullnosed bricks.

Love this glazed brick building in the Garnethill area of Glasgow. As far as I can tell, it's part of the former Garnethill Public School, which later became the High School for Girls, and was built around 1898.
