    The ruined remains of Lennox Castle.

    Originally built in ~1840 as a private property it was sold to The Glasgow Corporation (predecessor to the City Council) in 1927 and turned into a hospital for those with learning difficulties.

    In the 1940's-60's it also operated as a maternity home, and was the birth place of singer Lulu.

    It closed in 2002 and unfortunately was subject to a fire in 2008 which left it in its current state.

    Impressive ruin of the old hospital. Watch out around the castle as lots of glass.
