Rachel Kacir of the
NTS Tenement House in Garnethill provides a rare glimpse into life in Glasgow
in the early 20th century, in the faithfully restored four-room house lived in
by Miss Agnes Toward for over half a century. Learn what it meant to be an
"independent woman" in the first half of the 20th century, experience
how ordinary folk lived, and appreciate how many of the household amenities we
now take for granted were considered luxuries less than a century ago.
