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.

This wide-angle view, from the north-west, is intended to show the defensive earthworks. The deep ditch was a feature of Robert de Croc's original late-twelfth-century castle. The photograph also shows the causeway that led across the ditch.
