This Glasgow building dates from 1892 and the flat in question is a first floor time capsule, occupied by Agnes Toward- a shorthand typist- from 1911-1965. Miss Toward amassed artefacts from all aspects of her life- including letters, postcards, recipes and theatre programmes- so we are able to get a very good view of what she was about. She lived alone with her dressmaker mother, as her father died when she was three and her two sisters had passed in infancy. After her mother died, in 1939, she lived here alone and never married; altering very little about the apartment, except for having electricity wired in.
Come and take a walk in my shoes through this shrine to early 20th century life. It's a truly delightful and well-proportioned flat.
Don't forget to check out the blog I put together about this fantastic modern historical flat. I will always be a writer before anything else.
