ABOUT THE BUILDING
It's quite a landmark building, identified in many books on Glasgow. The building Camphill Gate is a B listed, 5 storey tenement, comprising of 24 flats and 14 businesses (including the Glad Cafe). Built in 1906 the property has several unique features, the most impressive of which is a communal roof garden that serves the three glazed cupola stair wells. (The building’s HES listing is here) The roof works amazingly well as a shared space and as a result there is a really good community spirit throughout the building. In the summer you will find the residents up there, growing vegetables, BBQing and sleeping in hammocks. The view to all sides is stunning!
