Many us love the “quirkiness” of our buildings, places and spaces – but what does this mean anyway? ANN LAIRD of Friends of Glasgow West presents a visual tour, and considers the influences impacting their future.

Arrive early to be sure of a seat!
Our Heritage Talks have run since 1996 and joined WestFest in 2024. Grateful thanks to Ann Laird (Friends of Glasgow West) for curating the programme, and to Glasgow Life for use of the Kelvin Hall Lecture Theatre.
