View of Kirk Street from Green Street by Robert Carrick, dated March 1844.

Robert Carrick was a Glasgow artist who worked in the same lithographic studio as William Simpson. He is best known for his watercolours of Glasgow and the surrounding areas. Note the pub on the right hand corner.

This charming watercolour shows the view from Green Street looking down Kirk Street (now Stevenson Street) in the Calton. A grocer's shop stands on one corner, opposite a shop selling wines and spirits. The pace of life seems very leisurely - women gossip in a shop doorway, men loiter on a street corner. The exception is the fight between the two little boys in the foreground, right. Thanks to the Mitchell Library.

In 1893 The Little Mill Tavern was owned by Mrs Hughes. The date of it's establishment is lost in the mists of the past. The old tavern was a little snug place with only two rooms, the property of the Buchanan Trust and had been for the last two years in the possession of Mrs Hughes, a lady well fitted to conduct such a place. Everything was spit and span and in point of internal arrangement was a model of neatness. Mrs Hughes on entering the premises, made inquiries as to the date when the tavern was established, but failed.
