The Hidden Glasgow Forums

A few pics from 2005 before the demolition. I'm not as brave as Hollow Horn - I stayed outside the Heras fencing. Definitely didn't venture down to the riverside at the carpark.

The building is well worth a visit if you get the opportunity. The very early photo has a fantastic quality , the unsettling atmosphere of these first photographs. HH's excellent photos spurred me to dig out some that I took at the open day a few years ago. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2373/238844...

The weather was pretty hellish.

I had a dose of reverse vertigo looking up at 12 Riverford as I imagined the scaffolding peeling off and crashing down onto my puny body - nowhere to escape.

Sorry for the hot link. http://mrmoto.smugmug.com/photos/256417447_BiX46-L.jpg Pollokshaws was a bit different today. The green mesh on the scaffolding was mainly gone or blowing in the fierce breeze. The top poles of the scaffold were shaking and bits were flying all over the shop. And the big cran...

Fascinating process demolition.
I was rubber-necking earlier this week,

Had to double back to snap this as it tickled my politics of envy nipple

Nice photos.

Thanks HH for creating a thread for this subject.

I'm off out for the evening ,but I will post more pics and details tomorrow.

Hello Folks Thought I would dip my toes in the water here with a couple of pictures of another Glasgow steeple - This time Hutchison Hall in Ingram Street , built in 1805. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2099/2051226284_d7dbe7b553.jpg?v=0 In the steeple looking up http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2410/...
