City Chambers & George Square, Glasgow
This postcard has never been posted.
Glasgow City Chambers is now Category A Listed. The Historic Scotland Report can be found here : hsewsf.sedsh.gov.uk/hslive/hsstart?P_HBNUM=32691
In 1888 the City Fathers arranged for the construction of the City Chambers shown in this postcard. The City Chambers are amongst the most lavishly appointed municipal buildings in the UK. This postcard captures George Square prior to the construction of the Cenotaph in the early 1920's in front of the City Chambers.
The City of Glasgow has been Scotland's most populated place since 1821. It was also the Second City of the British Empire. From the 1881 Census to that of 1951 it was the second most populated place in the UK after London. During this period it was also the fourth most populated City in Europe behind London, Paris and Berlin. The shipyards of the River Clyde were responsible at their height for in excess of half of the UK's shipbuilding (in old imperial) tonnage.
Since 1451 Glasgow has been the home to the fourth oldest University in the English speaking world - only Oxford, Cambridge and St Andrews are older. Glasgow can also claim to have the largest Council run library in Europe (the Mitchell Library spread over 7 floors) and one of the largest if not the largest Council controlled Art Collections in the UK.
