The remains of Bunhouse Mill, located on the River Kelvin in Glasgow, are significant historical structures that date back to at least the 1850s, with possible origins in the medieval period.

The remains of structures associated with the former Bunhouse Mill on the banks of the Kelvin in the West End of Glasgow. Its weir (top picture) is still visible across the river between the university and the Kelvingrove Art Gallery. This provided a head of water, some of which was diverted into the lade, a manmade channel which flowed alongside the river (middle photo), to power the mill.

Once under Partick Bridge, it reached the site of the mill itself, approximately where the Bunhouse Car Park for the Kelvin Hall is now sited, and which sits directly over where the lade once flowed (bottom photo). These structures date back to at least the 1850s, and are probably a great deal older as there was a mill on this site as far back as the medieval period.
