Rochdale's incredible Town Hall of 1871, newly restored, is so worth a visit (yes, I am biased as it is my home town!) & amongst the fabulous Victorian stained glass of trading cities & nations is Glasgow's @glasgowcoa.bsky.social @pastglasgow.co.uk #rochdale #glasgow #architetcure

@footstepspod.bsky.social @glasgowcoa.bsky.social Just arrived. Because of course I just love empires (not) but am (really) just a sucker for badges.

Thanks to @mrabercrombie.bsky.social for sharing these pics of Glasgow Uni's emblem - incorporating the bird, tree, bell & fish elements of #Glasgow's coat of arms - in Edinburgh!! 📚🐦🌳🔔🐟

It is a beautiful building, if a bit lacking in at least one important aspect: just the single Glasgow emblem to be seen! See if you can spot it next time you're in the Central! #LookUp #Glasgow 🕵‍♂️🚉 🐦🌳🔔🐟

Today, 13 January, is the Feast Day of St Mungo (AKA St Kentigern), patron saint of Glasgow. Edwin Morgan’s “Colloquy in Glaschu” imagines a conversation between St Mungo & St Columba. From CENTENARY SELECTED POEMS, @carcanet.bsky.social 2020 1/5 www.carcanet.co.uk/cgi-bin/inde...

Today is the feast day of St Mungo, born in 518 and also known as St Kentigern. He is the patron saint of Glasgow and founded a church where the Molendinar Burn meets the River Clyde, which later became #glasgowcatherdral. 🧵1/2

This reminds me that I've not yet retold my favourite Kentigern miracle story on this platform. It's the one in which he takes on a Viking warlord ominous bass music FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE.

Before 'corporate social responsibility' there was Corporation social responsibility, well, at least in the Dept of Architecture & Related Services! 💡🐦🌳🔔🐟

This, from the cover of an undated (but prob. Edwardian) copy of "The Molendinar" is well on the way to being a @GlasgowCoA

These Glasgow Corporation Electricity Dept distribution boxes are being replaced by plain boxes across the city. Here's one of the remaining ones I snapped yesterday in #Pollokshields #Glasgow. Thankfully @bigrabkenney.bsky.social has been recording many of these before we lose them 👍⚡️🐦🌳🔔🐟

Hello you lot! Here's the mug that was a defining moment for Glasgow's GenXers! Glasgow kids got it free at school to celebrated #Glasgow800 in 1975. Some of us are already celebrating #Glasgow850, even if we are a bit chipped and broken, both me + the mug 😋🐦🌳🔔🐟
