This font used on the gateposts of the former Haghill Public School in the East End of Glasgow is just superb. Designed by A. Lindsay Miller and built in 1904, the school was demolished in 2022, but it's hoped some of the original features will be incorporated in the affordable housing planned for the site.

When we lose old building, we lose not just the walls and the roof, but also all the other little design details which makes each building unique, like these sculpted signs, and once they're gone, they are lost forever as they're often left undocumented.

Prudence and Adventure on the1906 National Bank of Scotland on St Enoch Square in Glasgow. They were created by Phyllis Archibald, the only female sculptor I know of whose work adorns an Edwardian or Victorian building in the city.
