tunnel, interesting place, invisible, do not draw title
The Glasgow Harbour Tunnel was opened in 1895. It ran from Tunnel
Street in Finnieston on the North side of the river to Plantation Place on the South.
There was a pedestrian tunnel, and two tunnels for horse-drawn vehicles, which were lowered and raised by hydraulic lifts.
The tunnels were taken over by Clasgow Corporation in 1926, and the vehicular tunnels were closed in 1943.
The pedestrian tunnel finally closed in 1980.
