A fine city stroll over Bellahouston Hill, Pollock Park and Queen's Park. Pollock hasn't appeared in the new tranche of Tumps but must be a very near miss.Colin Crawford15/05/2020
On my way home from working in glasgow.robertphillips13/05/2020
Brisk walk from my flat via the Clyde Tunnel and Govan. The mound about 50m West of the special tree seems about 3 inches higher than anything else. Shame about all the trees spoiling the viewThearlaichdubh11/05/2020
Now there's a coincidence. I went up this hill a couple of days ago after a friend recommended a walk in the park. I hadn't looked at the change log so was unaware of its impending status. I did wonder if it might qualify but the contours suggested not. Good to see one of these new hills in my backyard.Colin Crawford09/05/2020
Been up this hill many times but definitely got to the top with one of my brothers mid 2019.chrisbien01/06/2019
