Renfield Street is one of Glasgow’s most recognisable streets which has a rich history and heritage.
It was once a hub for entertainment in the city as it was home to the Pavilion Theatre, The Apollo and the Odeon Cinema. Some of the biggest names in entertainment have appeared on the famous Glasgow street such as The Beatles, David Bowie and Billy Connolly.
Although some of these revered sites may no longer exist, it still remains a bustling street which runs from the top of town down to Union Street.
