Based in an Office across the Govan Road situated above the Brechins Bar. The road where the Black Taxis are was still cobbled then.

Cookie Monster Posted December 1, 2023 Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 Remember the buildings around Orkney Street in 1988 but don't remember walking past them around Govan Cross. Sometimes I wonder if I walk around blindfolded. [emoji848] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted December 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 Govan Cross again. My father in law used to spend some of his time sitting here chatting with other pensioners. This was 1988. He passed away in 1987. RIP Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the John Aitken Memorial Fountain. Don't know much about him . Cowan Park in Barrhead has a Bandstand. It's getting refurbished, I heard.
