The 115-metre swing bridge (99-metre moving span and 15.7-metre fixed span) with its 8-metre wide deck is one of the largest opening footbridges in Europe. It spans from Water Row in Govan to Pointhouse Quay in Partick, on the route of the old Govan Ferry, which ran until 1966.

When we moved here about 30 years ago it was difficult to get a mortgage in Strathbungo! Great place then and now! facebook.com/share/paSpehEo…

#thcars2 has now completed but is featured in a article in the autumn AHSS magazine. It was a privilege to work on the project and to see the difference the grant support has made to so many properties in Paisley town centre #theAHSS The National Lottery Heritage Fund Scotland Historic Environment Scotland

My feature on the plight & precarious future of Martyrs' School & Charles Rennie Mackintosh's legacy. Was lucky enough to see inside & what a beautiful building it is with its giant arches, shiny green tiles & its pairs of tiny doves in the rafters. heraldscotland.com/news/24687054.…

Sobering stuff for architects. I haven't worked as an architect for a while and when I did I was shielded a bit in local authority. Plenty of architect friends in private practice are pretty jaded about the profession. Why I finally quit architecture bdonline.co.uk/opinion/why-i-…

In Oxford today at St Peter’s College. A cabinet showing the medals of 2 very brave brothers. Identical twins one a doctor, one a reverend. Noel, the doctor, died of wounds after Passendale and was the only person to be awarded a VC and bar in WW1

Works progressing at Shawlands Cross for a new Paesano Pizza restaurant revealing old signage with elegant proportions. Great to see the site used again. It’s been like a missing tooth. With the opening of the Marlborough opposite the south side will be buzzing !
