High flats in Hutchesontown
The view is from the other side of the River Clyde. The two tower blocks on the right are now gone.
The picture was taken from a waste area within the Fleshers' Haugh. As indicated by the treetops visible not far ahead, the ground slopes down just beyond the far edge of this area. The slope leads down to the Clyde Walkway, from which another picture shows the same high flats, as well as the nearer buildings whose roofs can be seen in the present picture:
