Queens Coronation 1953 parade in Queen Mary Street, Bridgeton by the
local Scouts, Girl Guides and Brownies.
The parade would be assembling to march past St Francis-in-the-east
Church.
Queen Mary Street primary school is to the left of the photograph. Notice
also the old gas street lights.
Anyhow once the parade got going our Glesga Pal photographer got another
photograph....click here

Green

The junction seen in the rear is London Road at Fordneuk Street with
Templeton's carpet factory in the background.
This is a fantastic photograph....as a matter of interest the
junction of London Rd / Fordneuk Street can be seen here
