Bell's Bridge

Highlight • River

Bell's Bridge is a pedestrian and cycle bridge spanning the River Clyde.

It was originally constructed in 1988 as a temporary link for the Garden Festival, connecting the SECC (Scottish Event Campus Centre) site to the southern bank of the Clyde.

The bridge, equipped with a swinging mechanism to accommodate passing ships, was initially under the ownership of Scottish Enterprise. However, it was later transferred to the city council.

It forms a key part of NCN 7, a long distance cycle route connecting Sunderland with Inverness.

Speirs Wharf

Highlight • Structure

Speirs Wharf is a Glasgow city landmark on the Forth and Clyde Canal. The buildings here were built in 1851 as grain mills, storage & the offices of the Forth & Clyde Navigation Co. They were converted into apartments and retail space in 1989.
Today it's a trendy place with a nice cafe and leisure facilities. The canal is a good place to run, and this is a good stop if your running from the city centre or back into town.
