Stewart Memorial Fountain

Highlight • Monument

The Stewart Memorial Fountain in Kelvingrove Park in Glasgow was erected in 1872 and commemorates Lord Provost Robert Stewart, who drove forward the city's modern water supply.
The richly decorated fountain in Neo-Gothic style was designed by James Sellars and created with sculptures by John Mossman.
It symbolizes Glasgow's successful supply of clean drinking water from Loch Katrine and thus an important advance for the health of the population.
Today it is considered one of the most important monuments in the park.

River Kelvin

Highlight • River

The River Kelvin flows through Kelvingrove Park and significantly shapes its landscape. It originates north of Glasgow and flows into the River Clyde. In the park, it meanders in curves, accompanied by green spaces, paths, and bridges. The Kelvin contributes to the calm, natural atmosphere and provides a habitat for animals such as birds and fish. At the same time, it forms an important recreational area for visitors and connects nature with the urban environment of Glasgow.

A nice wee spot to take a break and enjoy the view, plus the slight climb up to it.

I visited the skatepark in 2012 - the pictures may be a bit old - but the skatepark is still there!
