Former site of Howford Primary School
At the time this picture was taken, the building was still shown in online mapping, but, as I learned in an interesting chat with a woman passing by, a teenage girl was charged with wilful fire-raising after the building (by then out of use) burned down in July 2018. The site is adjacent to Crookston Road.

Path, Ross Hall Park
A riverside path running through dark woodlands in Rosshall Park. This was once the grounds of a large house.
Plenty of alternative spellings here, maps from 1898 have Ross Hill, and of course show it to be far out into rural Renfrewshire between Glasgow and Paisley. Glasgow has grown a lot in the last 100 years or so, often fragments of the grounds of country estates have survived as parks.

View from Crookston Castle - WSW
The viewpoint for this picture was the top of Crookston Castle.
The nearest houses at the left-hand edge of the image stand alongside Brockburn Road. The closest houses just right of centre, where a car is rounding a corner, are on Towerside Crescent.
The tower visible in the right-hand side of the image belongs to Leverndale Hospital, which was built in 1895, and was formerly known as Hawkhead Asylum. At the time of writing, Leverndale Hospital, which now includes more recent buildings, was still in use, and served as a psycho-geriatric unit.
The distant hills in the left of the image are the area around Gleniffer Braes.
