Details

In this talk Norry Wilson of Lost Glasgow will present an illustrated history of Sauchiehall Street, the 'alley of willows'.

Norry last spoke at our venue in 2019 and this new talk will take into consideration the developments on Sauchiehall Street over the last six years.

Journalist and social historian Norry Wilson has had a lifelong fascination with his home city. He first fell down the vintage photography rabbit hole while working on the Evening Times. Think of him as the ‘Raider of the Lost Archives’. Now, after 10-years, and with over 300k online followers on his Lost Glasgow site, he continues to tickle the city’s collective memory muscle, teasing out old stories, forgotten facts, and the lost histories hidden in the photographic record of old Glasgow.

Part of The Dug Out: Sunday Afternoon Talks for the Public in 2025.
