1981 Glasgow Road

A couple more photos of the last days of the tenements on the north side of Glasgow Road. From 21st September 1981. This time both a view of the front and the rear of the building.

A sorrowful sight. Shops selling off their final stock and boarded up former upper homes that had existed for 100 years before. Buildings a shadow of their former selfs. The stories that could be told by the families who used to live there. The things they would have seen on those streets.
