    This is where Tommy Burns's funeral was held. A chapel very dear to the hearts of all the people of the Calton and the east end.

    Great to hear that, I enjoyed many happy hours as a boy splashing in that pool. And when it reopens I'll come from Kilmarnock to use it.
  • Stobcross, RobinPhillips (guest) wrote 16 years ago:
    I have found that an ancestor of mine lived in Stobcross House and estate which occupied this area before the shipyards. His name was John Phillips, a tea merchant and sugar refiner. Does anyone have any information or interest? robinjphillips@hotmail.com

    What rubbish! Built for the opening of the North Clydeside Electric services ('Blue Trains') in 1960, it unexpectedly had steam services for the 11 months that the Blue Trains were withdrawn for safety modifications after a few weeks.

  • Wolfson Medical School Building, Stephen (guest) wrote 16 years ago:
    Glasgow University Wolfson Medical School Building. Built in 2002 as part of an overhaul of medical teaching at the university, this building is where most of the teaching occurs for medical students at the university during their preclinical years. Along with the BHF Cardiovasvular Research building and Glasgow Biomedical Research Centre, (both next door and both built 2006), The Wolfson Medical School forms one point of the "Traingle of Excellence" of medical training and research. Very fancy.
