Glasgow has waved farewell to many legendary names in retail and leisure down the decades, with many having made such an indelible mark in the minds of locals that they'll forever be remembered.

Watt Brothers Opened in 1915, the iconic Watt Brothers store in Sauchiehall Street was one of the city's top fashion emporiums for over a century. It is sadly no more having gone the way of so many once great department stores.
