Nice one Stu

Strange to see the Burrell from that angle.

Seeing the whole of Glasgow from that kind of angle is strange... an opportunity I doubt will ever be repeated for me

tut tut Alex.. the NTS have a very strict "nae photies" policy inside their properties - I don't want to know where you hid your camera

Alan

I didn't know honest.

I took the photo before a meeting and got caught but they didn't say anything so I thought it must be ok.

Next time I am there I will clear it with them and explain that it is promoting Pollok House to those who haven't yet seen what it has to offer and hopefully this will encourage more visitors.

ignorance of the rules is nae excuse

good luck it trying to explain it to them. Dont sign anything, if you book in advance they will allow photos but theres a weeeee catch in all the properties they manage. You have to sign the rights to your photographs to them, you cant sell or reproduce in anyway but the catch 22 is, this includes all previous photos taken.

I 'used' prefer Pollok House to the Burrell collection but at £8 for an adult and Burrell collection for £0 is a much prefered place these days I'll leave Pollok House to the tourists and me & camera wont visit

Pollok House is a great place and should be visited at least once by everyone.

Although they my not be keen to allow photographs there is still lots to see.

I was taking a photo in Pollok House recently and had no idea it wasn't allowed. One of the staff did speak to me but she was really nice and let me take the photo anyway.

It was so refreshing to see common sense being applied.

PS - the photo was a close up of a detail of an old phone - nothing exciting really.
