Belmont Pond
The pond is located not far to the north-east of Image, and is one of three ponds in the park; the other is Image As is explained there, Belmont Pond lies within a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation.
It lies just to the east of what was originally the villa of New Mosesfield, built in 1838 for the bookseller James Duncan; that building became Mosesfield Museum until the mid-twentieth century, after which it was used as an Old Men's Club. There was also an Old Mosesfield, not far to the south.
Also nearby, and presumably giving the pond its name, was Belmont House, which was built in 1888-89 for Hugh Reid (for whom, see Image); it was said to be Glasgow's highest house. It stood just north of New Mosesfield, but was demolished in the mid-1980s.

Clock Tower, Stobhill Hospital, Springburn
The hospital was designed by the architects Thomson & Sandilands and opened in 1904. Stobhill was built by the Parish of Glasgow to meet the increasing need for hospital accommodation for the city's sick poor. For many years it carried the stigma of being a hospital for paupers, and the birth certificates of babies born there only recorded the address and not the name of the hospital.
