Glasgow Green Station
This station finally closed in 1953. The two platforms are gone and all that remains of the building is the southern and western walls, the windows and doors of which have been bricked up. You can see this view from a small back lane which runs to the rear of the station. I don't really know the significance, if any, of the dates(?) on the wall. Although the station never reopened, the actual line was re-established in the mid 1960's for trains from Maryhill to Rutherglen and beyond.

Templeton's Carpet Factory
This is a most unusual building. Behind the spectacular facade was a functional carpet factory belonging to James Templeton from Paisley.It was built in the early 1890's, and the design was based on that of the Doges Palace, Venice.This suited the residents of Monteith Row who did not want to look out of their windows onto a factory.

Time of trial?
A cyclist heads down Templeton Street during the Commonwealth Games 2014 Time Trials. Many of the roads in this part of Glasgow were closed off for the event, making travel by bus or car difficult, or impossible. So it was not only a trial for the competitors!

Templeton's Carpet Factory
A functional carpet mill stood behind the spectacular facade of the Templeton carpet factory. James Templeton from Paisley patented a chenille Axminster process by which he could manufacture more densely patterned and richly coloured carpets. He went on to become one of the most successful carpet manufacturers in Britain, producing carpets for state occasions, great houses, luxury liners including the ‘Titanic’, as well as domestic use.
