Renfrew St, north side between Renfield St and Hope St. If this building was ever symmetrical (and old maps show a school at the vacant east end) it must have been very handsome indeed. November 1973
McPhater St. Cowcaddens United Free Church (Campbell Douglas and Sellars, 1872) was under severe threat at this time, but it survived to become the Piping Centre, with its adjacent manse the Piper’s Hotel. The palazzo-like building beyond (Orient House, by W J Anderson, who also built Napier House in Govan) survives too, now flats. In fact, in a reversal of the normal order, only the tower block has gone. October 1973
Corner of Dunblane St and Dobbie's Loan, Dobbie's Loan School, later an annexe of Stow College. March 1974
