Scotland - July 1969 - Glasgow.

St Enoch Underground Railway - Below- now a travel centre on this side on the other a cafe.  The Underground entrance is now a modern structure on the right of the bottom photo.

The oldest house in Glasgow, Provand's Lordship from Google above and from postcards below.
Provand's Lordship is the oldest house in Glasgow. It was built in 1471 as a part of St Nicholas's Hospital by Andrew Muirhead, Bishop of Glasgow. It is the only house to survive from the medieval city.


 Sauchiehall Street with Policeman crossing the road.  Below - they have closed this little bit of Sauchiehall Street and turned it into a very pleasant part of Glasgow.
