Ghost sign for the Royal Hospital for Sick Children on Old Dumbarton Road in Glasgow. The city's first dedicated children's hospital, it originally opened in 1882 in Garnethill. In 1914, it moved to new premises in Yorkhill in the West End of Glasgow where it remained until it was replaced by the new Royal Hospital for Children on Govan Road in 2015.

@thisismyglasgow there was also an interlude in the late 60s when the kids hospital had to be evacuated to Oakbank in Possil, after the discovery of structural problems in the building at Yorkhill.
