Trying to found any photos/records on Whitehall Veneer Saw Mill, 36 Whitehall Street, Glasgow. It was owned by my great great great Grandfather Thomas Owen in 1860's

Nessie,  the place for old pic's is the Mitchell Library's website. Whitehall Street was in Anderston, between Stobcross Street & the Broomielaw, a wee street, probably long gone.

Skoosh.

Ah yes, I have looked on there already, and sadly there are no photos of the sawmill  :(

If you could get hold of a copy of this book there may be some images or further inforamtion

ANDERSTON THEN & NOW ..... A CONCISE HISTORY OF A GLASGOW DISTRICT
By John N. Cooper, published 2004.


or if you use facebook there is a page/group "Old Anderston" where they display several old photographs of the area.
