IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
St. Rhonans Lane, ALEXANDRIA, G83 0SU

The area is called Riverside. The large building left of centre is being built on what was previously a grassy area in front of Image (visible at the far left in the present photograph). The Image are on the right. As for the buildings that were under construction when this picture was taken, they are in Leven Street. According to a plaque on a stone at the north-western end of the development, this area of new housing was officially opened by Keith Brown MSP, Minister for Housing and Transport, on the 6th of June, 2012. See also Image, taken when construction was complete.

The large building shown left of centre is one of several that had recently been built on Leven Street (the others are behind it). They were completed just a few months before this picture was taken, and they were officially opened in June of 2012. Compare Image, which was taken while construction was in progress. The section of track in the right foreground is a footpath and cycle route that follows the western bank of the River Leven; it continues along the road on the right.

The name "Mews" often suggests the former presence of stables in an area. However, this building, Millburn Mews (122 Leven Street), was previously the local Buroo (cf. Image); it has since been converted into housing. In this photograph, two white doors are visible on the front of the building; above the door on the right, the date 1936 appears, along with the royal cipher of Edward VIII: Image See Image for another view of the building, and Image for a later development nearby.

These details appear above one of the front doors of Millburn Mews. For more information, and for a view of the building itself, see Image

Riverside flats, Alexandria.

At this point, the path shown in Image meets Glebe Gardens (the road of that name); the area as a whole is called the Glebe. Image – http://www.geograph.org.uk/snippet/7986 – is on the right, and the eastern end of the Image, which is the endpoint of this route, can be seen on the left, behind the Image

See Image for another view of the building (formerly the local buroo, now converted into housing), and for further details. The present photograph additionally shows an open area opposite the building. Housing was later built on that space: compare Image and Image

These flats are located in the appropriately-named Riverside area; the nearer two stand on Thomas Street, and the other on Angus Street. The lower buildings at the left-hand edge of the picture are part of St Ronan's Lane. National Cycle Network route 7 is visible in the foreground. For a similar view about a year later, see Image

Bonhill Church Vale of Leven FC ground and Vale of Leven Academy

See Image for the church itself. The tall memorial is for John McGlashan, who died at Millburn; Mary Ferrie his wife, who died at Renton; and their family, one of whom (Alexander McGlashan) was minister of the parish of Lanark for 25 years. The smaller memorial in the foreground bears the following text (from Longfellow): "There is no death. What seems so is transition. This life of mortal breath is but a suburb of the life Elysian, whose portal we call death."
