GLASGOW WESTERN INFIRMARY DEMOLITION (AND ENVIRONS)

The Western Infirmary has been pulled down.  Below are photos of the huge pile of rubble that is all that is evident in its old site adjacent to Glasgow University.

Many of us who live on the west side of the city have memories of being in the hospital at one time or another.  It is odd to see an empty space!

It is coming up to 100 years since the end of World War One.  The city is gearing up for Remembrance Day this coming Sunday.  This sculpture is adjacent to Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery.
