The Knowe, just off Albert Drive on the Southside of Glasgow. This beautiful Romanesque villa was designed by Alexander 'Greek' Thomson and was constructed as a country house in several stages in the 1850s.

I love all the details on the tower of Alexander 'Greek' Thomson's magnificent 1850s St Vincent Street Church in central Glasgow, especially the caryatids (pillars carved into female figures) just below the clock.

In common with other Alexander 'Greek' Thomson buildings, one of the wonderful things about his 1850s Saint Vincent Street Church in Glasgow is that it looks just as impressive close up as it does from a distance, as illustrated by this photo.

Alexander 'Greek' Thomson's magnificent 1850s St Vincent Street Church in central Glasgow, sadly looking more than a little bit uncared for and worse for wear.
