Tenement Life
Posted: Sun Jun 04, 2006 11:30 am
I came across this little artefact i aquired quite some time go, i found it in my attic the other day and have decided to post it up as a starter to a subject on tenement life in Glasgow.
I was born in a ground floor tenement in bridgton (Greenhead Street) i have fond memories of that place with Glasgow green accross the road and richmond park just along the rd... but of my best memories was playing in the back yard climbing the bin sheds and drainpaipes with the local kids and racing bogeys(Home made go-carts) through one close to another.
My parents moved to a teraced house in the 60s but i always went back to my previous house as it had so many great memories
Who has memories of their tenemental life and that have moved on to terraces later in life.
