What is recorded here
Glasgow’s Royal Infirmary gateway at 82-86 Castle Street stands as a formal entrance marker, though no date or building feature is recorded. It may have guided patients, doctors or visitors past a threshold where fear and hope met before treatment. The exact gates are no longer described, but the address still points to a place where human urgency entered a public institution.
