Springburn Winter Garden, Victorian winter garden in Springburn district, Scotland
The Springburn Winter Garden features seven steel lattice arches resting on red brick walls, with two connected greenhouses spanning 180 feet in length.
The Reid family, owners of Hyde Park Locomotive Works, provided funds for constructing this glasshouse in Springburn Park between 1899 and 1900.
Before closing in 1983, the winter garden hosted numerous community events, including concerts, exhibitions, and Easter celebrations with petting zoos.
The structure stands inactive since 1983 due to storm damage, and visitors can only observe the building's exterior through protective fencing.
Steel components for the garden's construction came from two specific locations: Temple Ironworks at Anniesland and Glengarnock Steelworks.
