Love this take on the Glasgow coat of arms as part of a mural on Mitchell Lane in central Glasgow.

A bird, a fish, a bell and a tree on the facade of a 1905 tenement designed by A.B. McDonald on Stockwell Street in Glasgow. One of many examples of these four symbols all over the city.

These are known locally as the bird that never flew, the tree that never grew, the fish that never swam and the bell that never rang. You'll see these symbols in many differents forms all across the city.

I love this Art Nouveau style version of the Glasgow Coat of Arms on one of the buildings of the old Lambhill Street School in the Kinning Park area of the city.

This bridge has some rather wonderfully carved versions of the city's coat of arms on it spandrels, which are only really visible from the river's edge.
