Description
Facing the Museum of Religious Life and Art stands Provand's Lordship, Glasgow's oldest house, a three-story building with a stepped gable. It was built ca. 1471 for the head of St Nicholas Hospital. James II and James IV are said to have stayed there and Mary Stuart spent the winter of 1566 in the house while she visited her sick husband Lord Darnley who was murdered soon after. The Curate's Room (16th century) and a fine collection of furniture (17th/18th century) are the most interesting exhibits in the museum.
