Finnieston Tunnel : Northern Portal

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Finneston Tunnel : Northern Portal This picture is taken from the Finneston Crane, looking at the entrance to the (then) pedestrian walkway under the River Clyde. Although in a state of disrepair, a number of hydraulic lifts took horse and carts silently under the river bed, via a roadway to a similar portal on the southern side of the river. The lifts fell into disrepair, but pedestrian access was permitted until 1980. When the building was totally remodelled to become a range of restaurants, utilising the old building shell. There is no longer public access to the pedestrian tunnel, however as this contains an important water main belonging to Scottish Water, access remains in case of maintenance.
