Let’s take a trip down memory lane to one of Glasgow’s busiest (and longest) streets, Argyle Street.

Argyle Street is the longest street in Glasgow at 2.1 miles, running all the way from Trongate to Glasgow’s West End.

Originally known as Westergait, Argyle Street has a rich history and it has changed a lot over that past 100 years.

It was once home to the famous Britannia Music Hall, or The Britannia Panopticon (pictured above), built in 1876. It is still used as a performance space to this day and the building now A-listed.

Glasgow Times:

The Hielanman's Umbrella, aka the Glasgow Central Station bridge, is situated over Argyle Street, leading you into Glasgow's main train station. The beautiful glass walled railway bridge is a great tourist attraction.
