What is recorded here

Sherbrooke Castle Hotel stands at 11 Sherbrooke Avenue in Pollokshields, Glasgow, where a late 19th Century villa became a mid 20th Century hotel and second World War military training site. Soldiers may have drilled in rooms later suited to travellers, turning private walls into instruments of wartime preparation. The building still holds that shift from domestic quiet to public service, inviting wonder about the footsteps that crossed its floors before peace returned.
