Disused Flint Mill, Kelvinbridge Glasgow. Scotland

These old Grinding Stones and some broken down walls are all that is left of the Flint Mill that once stood here in Kelvingrove Park. It was operated by Kidston, Cochrane & Co of the Verreville Glassworks who imported flints which were ground and turned into paste blocks for the production of glass and glazing tiles, it operated for many years but was eventually demolished in the 1960s. The church in the photo is the Kelvin Stevenson Memorial Church opened in 1898 which sits next to the Belmont St. Bridge opened in 1870, all part of Old Glasgow.
