Ladyburn School was not demolished. It is now a businessand artists centre. Saint Mungos which was situated close by was demolished in the early seventies.

This photo from 1968 shows Saint Mungos church and house and in the background Ladyburn Buildings.

Inchgreen Street ran from Port Glasgow Road north to the river and ended at the gas works. In the aerial view shown it is just out of picture. The buildings in the photo are as follows from left to right...Ladyburn Church, Ladyburn buildings, Saint Mungos RC church, the large tenement building next to the church was known as Paddys castle. Moving right we have Helen Street and Chalmers Street tenements and then the newer tenements of Fullerton Street which was situated just in front of Bogston rail station. Between Paddys castle and Helen Street there was a bridge which carried a railway line from the main Gourock to Glasgow line across Port Glasgow Road down to the gas works.
