Websites Of Historical Interest

The Victorian Web

Virtual Mitchell – full of great images of Glasgow

Websites Just for Fun or Information

Glasgow Guide discussion boards with lots of information about and images of Glasgow

Nigel Paine’s website – a clever man’s clever site – he is WAY too active and engaged with the world to even contemplate
