Glasgow Green by drone 🌳
Did you know, it’s one of the oldest public parks in Britain?
It’s been here for over 500 years 🤯
Common ground, in every sense — used for grazing, gathering, protest, and celebration since at least the 1400s. The city has changed beyond recognition around it. The Green stays.
At its centre sits the People’s Palace. Built in 1898, it was a gift to the East End — culture and warmth for a community that had little of either. The museum tells Glasgow’s story through ordinary lives. It’s one of the few places in the city that does that honestly. Unfortunately it’s fell into a state of disrepair but hopefully this can be resolved and the place restored to its former glory.
In two weeks, Glasgow Green becomes something else entirely. TRNSMT returns 19–21 June — three days, four stages, 50,000 people a day. Richard Ashcroft, Kasabian, Lewis Capaldi headlining.
A park for the People 🫶🏻
