Site of the former Dalmarnock Power Station
The large site of the former power station (demolished in 1980-1981) was left vacant, and became a very interesting site from a botanical point of view, as a large number of wild plants colonised the ground. By 1990 birch scrub was becoming established, along with many Buddleia bushes. These wild flowers attracted many insects, and the large areas of bare ground made a good micro-habitat for sun-loving species which liked to bask there. One of these was the grayling butterfly, which was discovered here in 1989 - the first time it had been recorded within Glasgow. The photograph was taken during a visit by local naturalists to the site in the summer of 1990.
The tenements in the background are on Dalmarnock Road, just north of Dalmarnock Bridge.

Dalmarnock Rail Bridge
There have been two Dalmarnock Railway Bridges. The first was constructed in 1861
but replaced in 1897 by the current one which is wider. The pillars of the old bridge were left in place as can be seen in the photo. Both of these were designed by George Graham and span the River Clyde.
