Lennox Castle Hospital (ruin) The picture was taken from a stairway which takes you down to what
was once a bowling green. The green is now heavily overgrown but the
benches and square enclosure wall are still there to be seen. 

The hospital itself is in a ruinous state and looks as though it 
could collapse at any time.

Celtic's training ground Above Lennoxtown, seen from the Campsie scarp.  Taken at the end of Celtic's only season so far on their own as the only Glasgow team in the top division. Partick Thistle were promoted soon after this was taken and will provide a Glasgow derby next season.
