My main memory of the old tunnel is one of wooden floors, dampness & the large pipe running along one wall, you can just see it at the bottom of the stairs in one of the photos. I was only through it once or twice. There are a couple of photographs available showing the interior of the tunnel itself but no more than a couple. Your photographs are invaluable. The quality and clarity is outstanding & is IMHO on a par with Marzaroli & Annan & I think that history will judge them to be so. Thank-you very much for these photographs, they are truly astounding.

Brilliant stuff. People slag the web but one thing it has brought in abundance is the ability to share photos that lie about in boxes or drawers. _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/magpie1320/ |

Same location but from the opposite angle I took these around a year later in 1988 when the warehouses were being stripped out prior to the new flats being built.

Sincere thanks to all who posted in appreciation of the thread.
I've found another half-dozen shots which I've edited into it - all of, on, or around the Finnieston Ferry, so although they're of a fair enough standard they don't cover any new ground, or water, and may not be worth seeking out. |
