Information: Carlton Place, was a prestigious block of mansions for Glasgow's ruling elite. Overlooking the River Clyde, the Georgian terrace featured exquisite panelling and plasterwork by Italian craftsmen. After years of declining fortunes, the property was derelict, burnt-out and propped up by scaffolding. The Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice received the keys to Carlton Place in 1983 and today owns 4 townhouses in this Georgian terrace. Sensitively restored, it combines a modern palliative care facility with homely comfort for patients and their families. There will be a Virtual tour of Hospice. Wards and In-patient unit will not be open to the public.
