Looking from the bow of SV Glenlee launched on the Clyde in 1896 and has circumnavigated the globe 4 times as a cargo vessel carrying tea,cocoa, cinnamon and spices from the far east. It was also used as a training ship for the Spanish navy from 1922-1969 and was saved from the scrapyard in Seville and brought back and restored and is now an excellent floating museum.

Thanks, Tony. The Pumphouse built in 1877 to produce hydraulic power for Queens Dock is in the background. It has a cafe, souvenir shop and exhibits and is a B-listed building.
