Miss Cranston's home Hous'hill on Priesthill / Pollok borders was redesigned by #CharlesRennieMackintosh 1904-06 with his Gesamtkunstwerk brand of modernism evident throughout... Mack's visionary style predates & looms over the #ArtDecoCentenary in Glasgow

🌳 The Argyle St Ash ~ older than the telephone & planted before the American Civil War. Vote for #Glasgow's tree as The Woodland Trust's 'Tree of the Year 2025' 👉 https://t.co/bc4W4g3sH7 💚 #Glasgow850 #DearGreenPlace
This Glasgow tree has been shortlisted for The Woodland Trust’s U.K. tree of the year and it needs your vote. For the last 170 years this defiant giant has endured everything history could throw at it. From horse-drawn trams to Teslas it has seen it all: the soot and pollution

From trams to Teslas, the Argyle Street Ash has stood through it all. 🌳 In this interview with @thisisgoradio, I share why this tree means so much to Glasgow — its past, its people, and its quiet defiance. 🗳️ Vote here: https://t.co/7VypwO8NY9
