All aboard! Just went on an excellent historic bus tour hosted by Paul Sweeney of #Springburn #Glasgow so rich in history, much of it destroyed, however hints of its rich past still remain if you are told where to look. 👀

1959 Daimler heritage bus tour of Springburn today, courtesy of Paul Sweeney & Bridgeton Bus Garage Home of the GVVT. Great information about Springburn’s historical past & absolute gems still to be seen/found but sad though at all the area lost🥲#glasgow #springburn #glasgowheritage #springburnhistory

After discussions with the owner of the former North British Locomotive Company headquarters in Springburn, I am pleased he has agreed to progress with an alternative plan to convert the A-listed building into student accommodation, instead of demolition. reglasgow.com/hundreds-of-st…

I'm looking forward to participating in the 35th annual GlasgowDoorsOpenDays this coming week! My Springburn Winter Gardens Trust historical walking tour is on Saturday morning, and I'm also on a panel at Page\Park Architects on the Tuesday evening to discuss Glasgow's built heritage crisis.

I enjoyed leading an historical walking tour of Springburn Park for GlasgowDoorsOpenDays I was joined by one of Scotland's best conservation-accredited structural engineers, Ben Adam, from NarroAssociates to talk about his recent condition survey of the Winter Gardens for Springburn Winter Gardens Trust

🚨BREAKING NEWS - Glasgow City Council puts the A-listed Charles Rennie Mackintosh Martyrs School up for sale. 🔍This important building needs a sympathetic owner who will celebrate the legacy of one of Scotland's most famous architects. 👀See the listing: shorturl.at/ijoEr

I really enjoy doing my historical walking tour of Springburn Park and Springburn Winter Gardens Trust for GlasgowDoorsOpenDays each year. It was great to see Springburn featuring so prominently in this year's Doors Open Day!

As ever, lots of interest in our Springburn Winter Gardens Trust Christmas Market stall. The community overwhelmingly supports restoration of the hothouse after 41 years of dereliction. Hopefully, 2025 will be the year we finally secure the capital funding needed to start much needed renovations.
