What is recorded here
Glasgow's Pavilion Palace of Varieties occupied 121 to 125 Renfield Street from 1902 to 1904, a brief but vivid marker of early twentieth-century spectacle. The exact dates suggest a restless experiment rather than a settled institution, perhaps hungry for novelty or doomed by circumstance. Renfield Street still carries the pace of that moment, even if the palace itself has vanished from memory.
