DescriptionOld Fire Station Springburn - geograph.org.uk - 1412349.jpg
English: Old Fire Station Springburn The old tenement was the Springburn Fire station until the construction of a new station I believe in the late 70's. If you look closely you can see the infill of the original station openings on the ground floor which now have windows set in. The building has been converted to flats. I am led to believe families of the Firemen lived in the flats above and a brick built block of flats sit just to the right and behind the building, also used as housing for families.
The line of the original Springburn Road can be seen to the left of the station building, the road was re-aligned and made a Dual carriageway in the early 80's. The new North bound carriageway is seen to the far left. 24th July 2009 10.15 a.m.
