Tenements Talking

A Walking Workshop on Tenements' over a Hundred Years Life

A row of tenement buildings with cars parked outside the houses.

What’s on offer?

Tenements Talking is a walking workshop about the change of Glasgow’s tenements over the years. 

What’s it about?

During this one hour workshop, we will walk among the tenements as living monuments of the change of Glasgow’s urban scene within the last century. We will discuss tenements’ stories starting from their construction and moving to the rent strikes which took place in Glasgow tenement neighbourhoods and spread over the UK. We will also discuss tenements’ adaptation to modern life and technology over the years. The workshop is designed as an active discussion platform rather than a tour.

Please can we ask that you arrive at 1pm to check in and get a light refreshment prior to leaving at 1.15pm. The tour will finish at Mansfield Park, Partick."

Who’s leading the event?
