This Is My Glasgow<p>I don't know why the Green Man was such a popular motif for Victorian Glasgow, but he can be found all over the place, including this rather stunning example from the City Chambers. Just check out the size of that leafy moustache and the strange creatures lurking in it!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowcitychambers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowcitychambers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/thegreenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thegreenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/greenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/tiling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tiling</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/ceramics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ceramics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/victorianarchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>victorianarchitecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowbuildings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowbuildings</span></a></p>
Alchemilla Mollis<p>Since my house is really really tiny, I decided to ditch the sofa which was taking most of the living/dining room space. I found this incredible bench at a local antique shop and am totally in love with it. Impractical item for an impractical person. My boy gets a bean bag so he can continue slouching, whereas I will practise my sitting up straight on this.

This Is My Glasgow<p>I love this arch decorated with images of the Green Man over the entrance to James Miller's 1896 Saint Enoch Underground Station building in central Glasgow. </p><p>It's now a coffee house and I wonder how many people going in to get their daily caffeine fix look up and see these wonderful little sculptures as they pass underneath.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/stenochsquare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stenochsquare</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowbuildings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowbuildings</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/thegreenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thegreenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowarchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowarchitecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/scupture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scupture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/designdetail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>designdetail</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/caffeine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caffeine</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>The Green Man on a building on Lancaster Terrace in Glasgow. </p><p>Representing spring and rebirth, the Green Man appears on a surprisingly large number of buildings in Glasgow, but this foliate version is the best representation of him I've so far found in the city.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/greenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/thegreenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thegreenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/stonecarving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stonecarving</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/designdetails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>designdetails</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecturaldetails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecturaldetails</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecturalfeature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecturalfeature</span></a></p>
