Kibble Palace Glasgow
Kibble Palace is a 19th-century wrought iron framed glasshouse, covering 2137 m.2 Originally designed by John Kibble for his home at Coulport on Loch Long in the 1860s,[2] the components were cast by Walter Macfarlane at his Saracen Foundry in Possilpark. Eventually brought up the River Clyde by barge to the Botanic Gardens, it was fully erected at its current location in 1873 by Boyd of Paisley.
