This Is My GlasgowGood morning, Glasgow. It's a wonderful Spring day outside today with clear blue skies, and even a little bit of warmth in the sun when it hits your skin.

This Is My GlasgowHowever, looking back at old maps as far back as the 1850s (when the park was first created) I cannot find any obvious reason why there was a fire point, or even water pipes, at this location in the park. However, it seems to been there for over 150 years, so presumably it had a logical purpose at some point in its history.<a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#glasgow</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/ironwork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ironwork</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/kelvingrovepark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kelvingrovepark</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/accesscover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accesscover</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/manholecover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#manholecover</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#glasgowhistory</a>

This Is My GlasgowThis access cover in Kelvingrove Park has long been a bit of a puzzle for me. Situated near the Park Drive entrance, you can just make out that it's a Fire Point (FP) cover made by Thomas Leadbetter and Co. Based on Gordon Street, with a works on Garnkirk Street, this Glasgow company was a plumbers, lead merchant and brass foundry, which, amongst other things made brass values for fire points (what we'd now call a fire hydrant) in the 1860s.

This Is My GlasgowThis 1850s townhouse overlooking Kelvingrove Park in the west end of Glasgow has an interesting little bit of history attached to it. In the 1930s, it was home to Archibald Young the professor of Surgery at Glasgow University, and when Albert Einstein visited the city in 1933 to receive an honourary degree, it was here that he stayed.
