Experts' Choice Award The Tenement House
8 expert reviews
“From the outside, Tenement House is just like any other of the tens of thousands of red-bricked flats that line so many of Glasgow’s residential streets. But within 145 Buccleuch Street in the Garnethill area of the city centre, there dwells a living history museum offering an eerie insight into how Victorian Glaswegians used to live.”
