Wild flowers at Glasgow Museums Resource Centre
Ox-eye daisies, Leucanthemum vulgare; and Bird's foot Trefoil, Lotus corniculatus at the back of GMRC, on the railway embankment. The edge of the Council's storage building for road salt on Woodhead Road can just be seen in the distance.

Glasgow Museums Resource Centre
This museum in South Nitshill opened in late 2003, and provided storage for approximately two hundred thousand objects from Glasgow's museum collections. It is divided internally into several "pods", in which the temperature and humidity are carefully controlled. Only the front section of the building is visible here, with a larger portion extending behind it.
Following a major refurbishment, the centre reopened to the public in September 2009; it will now store over a million items.
Set some distance from the main road, the GMRC is not in the most prominent of locations, and remains rather less well-known than some of Glasgow's other museums, but I consider it to be well worth a visit. There are daily tours; I took part in one on the day this photo was taken.

Earth bank beside GMRC in June 2006, before the construction of Phase 2 of the building in 2007. This bank was a good habitat for wildlife until the building was extended. The houses in the background are on Pinmore Street, on the other side of the Glasgow to Barrhead railway line.

The east end of the building. The large graphic was added to the end of the building so it could be seen from passing trains.
