The Hidden Glasgow Forums

(slightly off-topic) Speaking of the Clarence Drive/Queensborough Honda site, this is what this will look like within the next year or so: http://www.futureglasgow.co.uk/Residential/Queensborough.jpg Typical modern shite, but at least it's not as bad as most of the guff that's constructed around the...

Odd question, but it's been bugging me for some time now... My brother's new flat overlooks a bowling club and every night, one member of the club places about 50 litre bottles of water onto the lawn in a totally random manner.

Can anyone tell me what used to be on this site (circled) prior to the construction of Clarence Court nursing home and before that? http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b204/timchilli/34526745813562.jpg I know that Ross's Dairy depot was beside it, further east, but I've never been able to figure out w...

Here's the same scene from 1997:
