The Scots Baronial brilliance of Frank Stirrat's 1879 Dixon Halls on Cathcart Road in the Govanhill area of Glasgow. These public halls were a gift from William S. Dixon of the Govan Iron Works.

Another rather unique Glasgow tenement, this time on the corner of Langside Road and Queen's Drive on the city's Southside. Designed by W.M Whyte in a French Renaissance style, but with a statue of Liberty on the top, it was built in 1885.

You'll often hear it said there are five statues of Liberty in Glasgow. However, in reality, this is the only one as all the others are different allegorical female figures.

Streaming now from Goldsmith, Dana Erekat (CEO of whyze) & Eyal Weizman (Forensic Architecture) open a symposium on the role of architecture and planning in colonialism (focused on Palestine, but it's a broader discussion architects refuse to have)

The beautiful and unique Battlefield Rest Tram Shelter on the Southside of Glasgow. Designed by Frank Burnet and Boston, it was opened in 1915. The original plan was to have similar shelters across the city's extensive tram network, but this was the only one which was ever built.

Camphill House in Queen's Park on the Southside of Glasgow. Designed in a Classical style, possibly by David Hamilton, it was built around 1798 for the cotton manufacturer Robert Thomson. Thomson owned the Adelphi Cotton Works in Hutchesontown which is thought to have been the first factory in Glasgow to manufacture cotton goods. Originally built as a country house, it has now been engulfed by the expanding city.

A spot of desolation from Witley Court, in Worcestershire, for .
It was burnt down in 1937, and only made safe for visitors after 1972, when it was taken into the care of English Heritage.
It's main claim to fame is as the location for the video made to accompany Procul Harum's debut single 'A Whiter Shade of Pale'.
