House in which John Logie Baird grew up

Beautiful house; well captured Joe.

Thanks for your very kind comment, Jaap. Cheers, Joe

What a lovely house Joe... Plenty of room to have a large shed for his work!!....

Cheers... John.

Thanks, John, for your very kind comment. I believe he used a wash-house, near the corner of West Clyde Street and Colquhoun Street, as his workshop. Cheers, Joe

Gran composición !!!

Thanks for your very kind comment, Karp Panta. Cheers, Joe

Oh how cool is that!! :D

At first I was like...hmmm...what's so special about this house? I mean, it's a well-composed shot. The house is pretty enough and I love how the tree's branches obscure a part of the house. But when I read the text, it all hit home. How cool to see this man's home. It is always very thought-provoking to look at a famous person's home (or something they are famous for) and picture their accomplishment and what they have meant for us. Nice. :) Thank you for the information!

Yes, Janet, this was the Reverend John Baird's house. This is where his son, John Logie Baird, grew up, and went on later to be a pioneer of television. Thanks for your very kind comment. All the best, Joe

He grew up in a lovely house and it sounds as if he had a good childhood. what pleasure his invention has given the world.

He had quite a life too, Jean. Recently I read his biogrpahy: John Logie Baird: A Life by Antony Kamm and ‎Malcolm Baird. Cheers, Joe

A typical Scottish House, Joe. I wonder how J.L.B. would feel if he saw the clutter of TV aerials and satellite dishes everywhere?

He would be looking for royalties. LOL. Thanks for your very kind comment, Amelia. Cheers, Joe

I remember this house from the Panoramio days Joe. It's an attractive house and nice colour stone. What would we do without his wonderful invention! I do agree with Amelia about the clutter though. I hardy watch anything other than the old channels and BBC4! An excellent shot. Cheers, Rosa.

What would we do without 'Corrie' and 'East Enders'? LOL. Thanks for your very kind comment, Rosa. Cheers, Joe

Ooooh, on second thoughts, was it such a good invention! LOL!
