AS Glasgow remembers the Clutha disaster one year on, Memories goes further back in time for a look at the venerable hostelry's history.

This is the bar in the 1950s, then called 'The Popinjay' and still with four stories of tenements atop it.

Built in 1814, the year before the battle of Waterloo, it was another five years before the locals could toast the Iron Duke's victory over Old Boney, as the premises weren't granted a licence until 1819.

The pub, long a favourite with workers from the next-door Briggait fish- market, went under a variety of names over the years; McLaughlin's Bar, The Popinjay, The Weeman's, The Merchant.

Now fixed in the public mind as The Clutha, Gaelic for the Clyde, we'll all raise a glass when this historic bar finally reopens.
