Comprehensive redevelopment in Glasgow's Gorbals district in the 1960s and1970s, showing slum clearance and the new high rise flats which replaced many of the tenements. At the back of the tenements you can see the additional brick-built toilet block which gave one communal toilet per landing. Previously, the tenements had no inside toilets and residnets had to go to a hut in the back court. Scanned from a transparency taken by David Palmar.

Campsie and Fintry Hills
The Campsie Fells with Dumgoyne and Dumfoyn, taken from Kelvindale, Glasgow by David Palmar. These two volcanic plugs or necks mark the western end of the Campsie Fells. The Carboniferous outpouring of lava from these volcanoes and others gave rise to the Campsies, Kilpatricks and Renfrew heights, which are collectively known as the Clyde Plateau Lavas. To the right can be seen some of the lava flows. The weather is a typically anticyclonic winter scene, with cold dry air, blue skies and snow.
