Nov 5, 2026, 8:42 AMThe Finnieston Bar on Argyle Street in Glasgow. Built around 1800 as a drovers' inn for those bringing cattle and other livestock into the city's meat markets, this building has since become engulfed by tenements as Glasgow expanded westward.
Rumour has it Rob Roy MacGregor, the infamous outlaw, cattle-rustler and Jacobite folk hero, once stayed here. However, this can't have been in the current building as he died around seventy years before it was constructed.
