| Anniesland is an intriguing wee district at Anniesland Cross, at the junction of Gt Western Rd and Crow Rd |

| The Ascot cinema - a lovely art deco building - was built in 1939 and must have been the perfect place to watch Fred dance with Ginger. It became a bingo hall in the 70s and was demolished by the barbarians in 2001. The frontage was saved as a facade for the new blocks of flats behind it. See www.scottishcinemas.org.uk/glasgow/ascot.html |

| Anniesland Court is Scotland's tallest listed building - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anniesland_Court. It was built in 1968, and as Wiki says, the more famous Goldfinger-designed (and later built) Trellick Tower looks very like it |
