This statue stands in tribute to John Greig, the greatest Rangers player ever. The statue depicts Greig in his playing days wearing his Rangers strip. He is standing and holding a football in his left hand, a reminder of his position as left back. The statue stands atop a memory to the 66 Rangers supporters who died in the 1971 Ibrox disaster. Each of the victims of the tragedy has their name on a brick that makes up the memorial.

Designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh in 1901 and built in the attractive setting of Bellahouston Park in the 1990s, House for an Art Lover allows the visitor an insight into Mackintosh's renowned talent not just as an architect, but as a an artist, designer and pioneer of the Modern Movement. The venue runs regular arts themed events and is home to the popular Art Lover's Cafe.
My partner and I very much enjoyed our recent visit to the House for an Art Lover. We felt safe, the staff were excellent, the afternoon tea scrumptious and the music room beautiful. Thank you for providing such a lovely, peaceful atmosphere.

You can walk here from the centre of town or get a bus or a train - one of the ones heading south from Glasgow Central or by bus on Jamaica street. Here it's simply a must see in terms of one of Greek Thomson's masterpiece, especially interesting in the evening. In fact one part of the year they have a kind of night show with lights - but you would need to check on that.

This small church houses the Govan stones. They are Viking rune and early Celtic. The church itself is fantastic. The church is 4 minutes walk from Govan subway station. I would do this, then the Fairfield shipping museum (another 5 mins walk) too. Please, don’t miss this. It is a hidden gem in Glasgow. Definitely recommend
