Old Photograph Paddle Steamers Leaving Broomielaw Glasgow Scotland

Old photograph of paddle steamers leaving the Broomielaw, Glasgow, Scotland. Passengers boarded elegant paddle steamers heading for coastal resorts such as Largs or Dunoon, and Rothesay on the Isle of Bute. The number of steamer routes meant affluent business people could commute, working in Glasgow during the week and joining their families at their country villas for the weekend.
