Its been a while since i did my last Glasgow Schemes page, mainly due to work and family committments. This place is called Hamiltonhill and is in Possilpark, North Glasgow. A lot of the tenements here are in terrible condition these days. The area was originally full of grey sandstone tenements which were renovated around the late 80's. Until 6 or 7 years ago this part of possil was in fairly decent condition but has went downhill over the years.

There aint many tenements of this quality in Glasgow that havent been renovated, wonder why these haven't been??these are just off the main shopping street in possil.love the mural at the side tho..

everything in this area is covered in graffiti, council are constantly cleaning it up in parts of area.

Nice view of the other half of possil where a lot of demolition has also taken place and where a some new houses have been built. Can also see Red Road flats in the distance.
