More shots of the city in 1975, featuring extensive footage of tenement demolition contrasted with new high rises in the Gorbals. Even then they were riddled with damp and mold, and they'd be demolished in 1993, just 28 years after the first residents moved in. #history #glasgow #1970s | Past Glasgow

The Tenement House, in Glasgow’s Garnethill is a time capsule. Agnes Toward lived here from 1911 until 1965. She preserved a lot of the early furniture and held on to things other people might have thrown away, meaning that today this is as close a picture as you’ll get to early 20th century life in a Glasgow tenement. Agnes worked as a shorthand typist in the city. Despite there being a bedroom in the house, she slept in the kitchen with her mother and it’s thought they took in lodgers. #glasgo

The Tenement House NTS is an authentic time capsule of life in early twentieth-century Glasgow, revealing what it meant to be an independent woman at that time.

The strange story of Glasgow destroying itself. These sandstone tenements are handsome things, and are full of good quality flats. Some time in the 1980s I think, planners decided to batter a road right through the community. Huge numbers of houses were ripped down, and a dual carriageway laid down. They didn’t destroy all the houses. Instead they just destroyed the front blocks, and then slapped a cheap brick conclusion on to the old buildings. Very ugly. Now this road sits half used, and the b
