St Mungo's Cathedral (View from Necropolis), Glasgow

Glasgow, St Mungo's Cathedral (View from Necropolis)


The Necropolis is to the east of St Mungo's, a vast Victorian cemetery with some opulent structures, monuments and mausolea, all somewhat deteriorating, many of which I would guess have been removed as unsafe, but I cannot see vast sums being invested in preserving anything but the best structures. It's a pity as it is the crowded nature of the place which is (was) so atmospheric.

Another photograph of the exterior of St Mungo's Cathedral (with further commentary) is also available.
