Former railway bridge over the River Kelvin
The bridge was built for the Lanarkshire and Dunbartonshire Railway in about 1896 https://canmore.org.uk/site/197365/glasgow-old-dumbarton-road-railway-bridge. On the right is the end of Partick Sewage Pumping Station and the former Scotstoun Mills. Beyond the bridge are the Category B listed former Bishop Mills http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB33096. The building has scaffolding in place, as it was being converted to residential use. The chimney on the left is for the Queen Mother's Maternity Hospital. The area beside the river was the site of the Regent Flour Mills. These were demolished in 1978. Nature had taken over since then and many plants of giant hogweed had established themselves. Not long after this photograph was taken, the ground was redeveloped as a car park for the Kelvin Hall (just out of view on the left).

Old railway bridge over the River Kelvin
The bridge, built about 1896, carried the Lanarkshire and Dumbartonshire Railway over the River Kelvin [https://canmore.org.uk/site/197365/glasgow-old-dumbarton-road-railway-bridge]. To the left was Partick Central Station, while to the right was the Yorkhill tunnel. The bridge crosses the river at the point where there is a natural fall, which in the 19th century also acted as a weir for the adjacent mills.
