    Arcadia St, west side north of London Rd. 

Two model tenements of c1900, with part of the Greenhead Engine Works (c1860) on the right. All demolished around 1990.  

July 1973
    London Rd, south side east of Blackfaulds Place. 

 The next street along is Silvergrove St - this will help to locate Blackfaulds Place, which has disappeared entirely. It led to the Greenhead Brewery, which by this time was only a bottling plant for Dunn and Moore. 

 May 1974
    Looking down Stevenson St from Abercromby St.  

Another interesting and impressive tenement block now demolished. Unusually, it had a stone balustrade and cast iron railing running the full length of the roof-line, guarding a rooftop drying area. The stone cartouche bears the city arms surrounded by the words ’Glasgow City Educational Endowments Board’.   

February 1976
