Indian Summer wander - 18 October 2007Meeting point: Ibrox Underground Station, 3pm
Meet at Ibrox underground, head down towards Pacific Drive and into Festival
Park, wander round the old water/buckfast feature and back out at the Govan
road side. Cross over PRW onto Clifford Street and follow it along the
motorway by the old Bella academy, over footbridge to new bella academy
by the motorway severed tenement blocks. Then into tree lined streets and
enter Bellahouston park by Dumbreck Road gates... upto walled/secret
gardens at the top of the hill and onwards from there.
It's not a long or complicated trip and should take in some nice Indian
Summer like pictures hopefully.

|

Here is a couple of mine.....
Just had to show this one big, what a building, what a tragedy! 
|
Ronnie

Nice pictures, WM - any idea what they show?
I'm guessing the Guttenberg one is on the Govan Press building on Govan Road, and the fourth one looks like Kinning Park.
|
Stuball

The Guttenberg building is the Govan Press building... has another name that escapes me... Cossar or something
The 4th one is on Govan road.... Napier House I think
|
Scary
|
I never saw this till Friday, that was a bit of sudden notice for a walk  
Nice pics btw
|
Stuball
|
Yeah, was pretty abrupt notice... we should have posted it a little sooner... sorry
