Glasgow Green railway station

Glasgow Green was a railway station in the east end of Glasgow, Scotland. The station was opened on 1 November 1895 and closed on 1 January 1917. It reopened on 1 June 1919 and closed again on 2 November 1953. The station then sat unused on the Argyle Line of the Glasgow suburban railway network, with no plans to reopen and its platforms removed. The lettering of the station name was in the same style of other Caledonian Stations, most notably on the main canopy of Glasgow Central. On 20 March 2012, what remained of the station's façade (the southern and western walls, their windows and doorways bricked up) was demolished. Network Rail cited public safety as the reason, claiming the façade had become unsafe after sustaining storm damage. References External links Some pictures of Glasgow Green Station in 2002
Glasgow Green

Glasgow Green est un parc public de Glasgow, sur la rive nord de la Clyde. Il s'agit du plus ancien parc de la ville puisqu'il remonte au XVe siècle. Il a accueilli certains des premiers matches de football quand ce sport a commencé à se développer. Le tout premier match de l'histoire des Rangers s'y est déroulé en 1872. Il est bordé par Templeton on the Green, l'ancienne usine de tapis James Templeton & Co. On y trouve également l'obélisque érigé en 1806 à la gloire de l'amiral Nelson.

Глазго Грин

Глазго Грин (англ. Glasgow Green) — парк, расположенный в восточной части Глазго, на северном берегу реки Клайд. Основанный в середине XV века, Глазго Грин является старейшим парком города. История В 1450 году король Шотландии передал в дар епископу Яков II Уильяму Тёрнбуллу и всем жителям Глазго заболоченный участок земли на берегу Клайда. Изначально здесь пасли скот, стирали и отбеливали бельё, сушили рыбачьи сети и занимались плаванием. В 1817 и 1826 годах были предприняты первые попытки облагородить участок будущего парка: территория была выровнена и осушена, реки и ручьи заключены в трубы под землю. Достопримечательности В парке находится Национальный хоккейный центр Глазго. Памятник Нельсону В 1806 году, через год после смерти Горацио Нельсона в его честь в Глазго Грин был возведён монумент высотой 43,5 метра. Он стал первым памятником великому флотоводцу в Великобритании – колонна Нельсона в Дублине появилась лишь спустя два года, а в Лондоне – через три десятилетия. Через 4 года после воздвижения в памятник ударила молния. В результате в нём образовалась длинная структурная трещина. В 2002 году в ходе реставрации памятника, на которую потратили около £ 900 000, были устранены накопившиеся за два столетия повреждения, а сам монумент был приведён к своему первоначальному виду.

Глазго Грін

Глазго Грін (англ. Glasgow Green) — парк, розташований в східній частині Глазго, на північному березі річки Клайд. Заснований в середині XV століття. Глазго Грін є найстарішим парком міста. Історія У 1450 року король Шотландії передав в дар єпископу, Вільяму Тернбулл і всім жителям Глазго заболочену ділянку землі на березі Клайда. Спочатку тут пасли худобу, прали й вибілювали білизну, сушили рибальські сіті й займалися плаванням. У 1817 і 1826 роках були зроблені перші спроби облагородити ділянку майбутнього парку: територія була вирівняна й осушена, річки й струмки забрані в труби під землю. Пам'ятки У парку знаходиться Національний хокейний центр Глазго. Пам'ятник Нельсону У 1806 рік через рік після смерті Гораціо Нельсона на його честь в Глазго Грін був зведений монумент висотою 43,5 метра. Він став першим пам'ятником великому флотоводцю у Великій Британії — колона Нельсона в Дубліні з'явилася лише через два роки, а в Лондоні — через три десятиліття. Через 4 роки після спорудження в пам'ятник вдарила блискавка. В результаті в ньому утворилася довга структурна тріщина. У 2002 році в ході реставрації пам'ятника, на яку витратили близько £ 900 000, були усунені накопичені за два століття пошкодження, а сам монумент був приведений до свого первісного вигляду.

Glasgow Rowing Club

Glasgow Rowing Club is a rowing club, based in the Gorbals area of Glasgow, Scotland. It is a private club, with no direct public funding. Application for membership is open to all. The club is affiliated to Scottish Rowing. History The club was formed on 4 December 1983 by the amalgamation of Glasgow Argonauts Boat Club (GABC), founded in 1924 and City of Glasgow Amateur Rowing Club (CGARC), founded in 1965. GABC was originally a club for the Alumni of Glasgow University Boat Club, and CGARC was formerly The Printers Rowing Club founded early 1900s. Both clubs had for some years resided as tenants of other clubs and part of the reason for the merger was the shared desire to build new premises. The boathouse, which was officially opened by the Lord Provost of Glasgow in May 1997, is located in Silverfir Place on the south bank of the River Clyde, just along from Shawfield Stadium. The club colours are yellow and red. These were chosen to reflect the club's origins and were the minor colours of the predecessor clubs: GABC colours were pale blue, black and gold (not yellow) and CGARC were dark blue and red. The oar design has changed from the original yellow with red collar and red tip, through the design displayed, to the current design. Current branding colours are: Red Paint - RAL 3002 (pantone 187) Yellow Paint - RAL 1003 (pantone 1003) Black paint - RAL 9005 (pantone black) Major successes In the 2004 UK National Rowing Championships in Nottingham member Lindsay Dick won the women's single sculls event, while her fellow member and partner Alastair Warnock won the equivalent men's event. Warnock also made good progress in the Diamond Challenge Sculls at Henley Royal Regatta that year, with one particularly noteworthy scalp in the first round, only to be beaten in the semi-final by the eventual winner of the event. Lindsay Dick won a Bronze medal at the 2006 World Rowing Championships at Dorney Lake in the Women's Lightweight Quadruple Sculls. At Henley Royal Regatta in 2009 the club set a precedent for Scottish rowing clubs by having crews race in quarter-finals of two different events (the Britannia Challenge Cup and the Wyfold Challenge Cup), although neither crew progressed to the semi-final stage. Previous Henley participation has included Fran Jacob racing in the Princess Royal Challenge Cup in 2008 and Alastair Warnock who reached the semi-final stage of the Diamond Challenge Sculls in successive years; in 2004 and 2005. Later in 2009, at the National Rowing Championships, Glasgow crews won Men's Lightweight Fours (C. Logan, K. Docherty, J. Logan and S. Scrimgeour) and Men's Lightweight Pairs (C. Logan and J. Logan). Glasgow also had a share in the composite crew that won the Silver medal in Women's eights. In March 2010, Glasgow members provided the core of a composite crew, along with rowers from Glasgow and Strathclyde Universities, that won the Novice Academic category at the Women's Eights Head of the River Race (WEHoRR).

Glebe Park, Brechin

Glebe Park (known as the "Carnegie Fuels Stadium at Glebe Park" for sponsorship reasons) is a football stadium in Brechin, Scotland, which is the home ground of Brechin City. Glebe Park opened in 1919. The ground had just one portable stand, which had been used at the Perth agricultural show. Brechin City joined the Scottish Football League in 1929, when a pavilion was added and the Cemetery End terrace was covered. The biggest ever attendance was 8,123, against Aberdeen in a Scottish Cup tie played on 3 February 1973. This attendance was greater than the population of Brechin. Floodlights were installed and used for the first time in 1977, in a match against Hibernian. The old stand was replaced by a new Main Stand, with 290 seats, in 1981. Sponsorship by the Stewart Milne group and a Football Trust grant of £210,000 financed the construction of a 1,228 seat stand at the Trinity Road end of the ground. This stand had double the capacity of Brechin City's average attendance, which attracted criticism from non-league clubs in England, who believed that the Football Trust should fund their developments instead. Unusually, the largest stand in the ground was built behind the goal, rather than the side opposite the Main Stand. This was because that side is constrained by a terrace and the Glebe Park hedge, which runs past more than half of the pitch. The hedge was threatened in 2009 because Glebe Park's pitch dimensions were too small for it to meet UEFA requirements, at just 67 yards wide. A fine was suspended by the SFA because Brechin City carried out some work to resolve the problem. There is a small training pitch behind the hedge. Glebe Park has also been used for the reserve team matches of Scottish Premiership club Aberdeen. References Sources Inglis, Simon (1996). Football Grounds of Britain. Collins Willow.

Glen o' Dee Hospital

Glen o' Dee Hospital is situated in the west end of Banchory, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is a small community hospital that provides services for the population of Royal Deeside supported by local GPs. It is managed by NHS Grampian. History The original building was commissioned as a sanctuary for tuberculosis patients and opened as Nordrach on Dee Hospital in 1900. When tuberculosis died down it served as a luxury hotel (when it became "Glen o' Dee"), but was taken over during the Second World War to serve as a billet for troops. In 1955 it became a convalescent hospital. It reprised its role in contagious diseases when a typhoid epidemic hit nearby Aberdeen in the 1960s, but its last use was as a residential home for the elderly before it closed in 1998. The original building was featured on the BBC's Restoration programme and, although local people campaigned to have it restored, it continued to sit empty and deteriorating. The building was badly damaged by fire on 14 October 2016 with police treating the incident as wilful fire-raising. On 14 November 1989 it became a Category A listed building; on 25 November 2016 it was delisted. A small modern community hospital staffed by GPs now operates on the site. A befriending service was established at the community hospital in 2013 matching older patients ready to be discharged, but lacking confidence to return home, with a volunteer befriender. The volunteers then visit the older patients regularly in hospital and at home after discharge, offering on-going emotional and practical support. Local GPs reported the service had improved the overall health and wellbeing of their patients and reduced the number of medically unnecessary GP visits. Robert Young Keers FRSE was Superintendent of the facility from around 1950 to 1957. The hospital was destroyed in October 2016 after it was wilfully set on fire by two 13 year old boys.

Glenalmond College

Das Glenalmond College, ursprünglich Scottish Episcopal College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, ist ein koedukatives Internat der Scottish Episcopal Church nahe der schottischen Ortschaft Methven in der Council Area Perth and Kinross. 1971 wurde das tudorgotische Bauwerk in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen. Geschichte Zu den Gründern des Glenalmond College zählen unter anderem der spätere britische Premierminister William Gladstone, sein Vater John Gladstone und James Hope-Scott. Das Grundstück stellte George Patton, Lord Glenalmond zur Verfügung. Als Hauptverantwortlicher Architekt stand John Henderson zur Verfügung. Der Bau wurde zwischen 1843 und 1851 ausgeführt. Im Laufe der Jahre wurde die Anlage mehrfach erweitert. Hiermit wurden unter anderem Andrew Heiton, George Gilbert Scott und Basil Spence betraut. Ziel des Glenalmond College war die Ausbildung des Priesternachwuchses der Scottish Episcopal Church. Um wenige Berührungspunkte zu dem lasterhaften Leben zu bieten, wurde bewusst der entlegene Standort begrüßt. Am 4. Mai 1847, vier Jahre vor Fertigstellung der Anlage, empfing die Schule ihre ersten 14 Schüler. Zunächst stand der Besuch nur männlichen Schülern offen. Erst 1990 wurden ab der sechsten Klasse auch Mädchen aufgenommen. Seit 1995 ist das Glenalmond College für alle Klassenstufen koedukativ.

Glencoe House

Glencoe House is a category B listed four-storey Victorian estate house in Glencoe, Lochaber, Highland, Scotland. History Designed by Rowand Anderson, the house was built in 1895 by Lord Strathcona for his wife, Isabella. It became a military hospital during the Second World War and, after the war, served as a maternity hospital until the 1960s when it became a hospital for geriatric patients; it then closed in 2009. The property was put up for sale after local people failed to raise the £450,000 necessary to buy it under the Land Reform Act, having been given only five months to raise the £1.5M necessary to buy and restore the building. Unknown to the South Lochaber Community Company the Big Lottery Fund proceeds were being diverted to the London Olympics and the funding request was denied. It was sold in 2011 to a private buyer and after a restoration it was reopened as a hotel in August 2012. See also Glencoe Lochan References
Glencorse Reservoir

Das Glencorse Reservoir ist ein Stausee in Schottland. Geschichte Der Stausee wurde zwischen 1820 und 1824 erbaut. Der schottische Ingenieur James Jardine zeichnet für die Planung verantwortlich, wobei er Unterstützung von Thomas Telford und John Rennie erhielt. Die Baukosten betrugen 43.000 £. Das Glencorse Reservoir wurde im Wesentlichen zur Wasserversorgung der zahlreichen Mühlen entlang des North Esks eingerichtet, diente jedoch auch der Versorgung von Edinburgh. Hierzu wurden über die Strecke von rund 14 Kilometern gusseiserne Rohrleitungen verlegt, die unter anderem kleine Reservoire auf Castle Rock und nahe der George Heriot’s School versorgten. Heute ist das Glencorse Reservoir Teil der Pentland Works zur Wasserversorgung Edinburghs. Das Glencorse Reservoir überflutet die mittelalterliche St Catherine’s Chapel, deren Ruinen bei niedrigem Wasserstand sichtbar werden. Geographie Der etwa 880 m lange und 780 m breite See liegt im Süden der Council Area Midlothian in den Pentland Hills nahe der Kleinstadt Penicuik. Der grob L-förmige See weist eine Fläche von maximal 21 Hektar bei einem Stauvolumen von 1.634.710 m³ auf. Entlang seiner Schenkel erheben sich der Castlelaw Hill sowie der Bell’s Hill, während der Turnhouse Hill im Innenwinkel liegt. Das Glencorse Reservoir entsteht durch Stauung des Logan Burns, der an der Westseite des Stausees einmündet. An der Ostseite fließt der Glencorse Burn ab, der über den North Esk schließlich in den Firth of Forth entwässert. Nur 1,5 Kilometer flussaufwärts wurde das Wasser des Logan Burns bereits zum Loganlea Reservoir gestaut.

Glencorse Reservoir

Glencorse Reservoir is a reservoir in Midlothian, Scotland, two miles west of Glencorse, in the Pentland Hills. It is retained by an earth dam, and it was built between 1820 and 1824 by James Jardine to provide water for the mills of Auchendinny, Milton Bridge and Glencorse, and to supply drinking water to the citizens of Edinburgh. The dam is 23.5 metres (77 ft) at its highest point, one of the tallest in Britain when it was constructed, and was built at a point where a spur of rock narrowed the channel of the Glencorse Burn, which caused great difficulties in its construction. The gravel bed on which the burn flowed was up to 16.2 metres (53 ft) deep and when this was removed to create a clay-puddle dyke, the hill on the south side collapsed. The reservoir is the property of Scottish Water. The reservoir was built to provide water to compensate the mills at Glencorse, Milton Bridge and Auchendinny and to ensure a supply of drinking water to Edinburgh through a cast-iron pipe which took water to two small reservoirs in the city, at Castlehill and near George Heriot's School. The reservoir has an area of 19.3 hectares (48 acres). A Water Treatment Works was opened at Glencorse in 2012 to replace aged facilities at Alnwickhill and Fairmilehead and treat water from Talla, Fruid and Megget reservoirs. In 2019, Glencorse Water Treatment Works was reported to have the capacity to supply up to 175 million litres of water per day and was supplying water to up to 450,000 customers in parts of West Lothian and Edinburgh. Beneath the surface of the reservoir are the remains of St Catherine's of the Hopes, a 13th-century chapel.
