THE development of one of Glasgow's most recognisable institutions will be marked this week.
The University of Glasgow has been a part of the city skyline and its social, political and economic history for more than 500 years, yet the story of its architects, craftsmen and engineers remains relatively unexplored.
A new book, produced by the University and Historic Scotland, is launched at the university tomorrow and charts for the first time the development of the university from its original High Street location to the current campus at Gilmorehill.
The book, Building Knowledge, uses hundreds of largely unpublished drawings, photographs, minute books, letters and reports.
