Bootscrapers of Park Circus in the west end of Glasgow. Bootscrapers are very basic, functional item of metalwork, but I love all the different ways they've been made to look a bit more fancy.

Dull for most they may be. A very niche interest no doubt. But Mouse fascinated by them and so if there's a #BootScraper it's going in the album

Interesting ones don't turn up that often, but this is rather fine. A #BootScraper with a frame to hang onto while you remove the dung from your walkers #StDecumanWatchet #Somerset for #FerrousFriday

Open pediment, engaged shafts, ornate carved capitals, traceried lunette and the patina of that panelled door! Oh Lordy. Just gor-ge-ous #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
(The niche bottom left would once have sported a nice #BootScraper too)

The exact same bootscrapers can also be found outside 10 Downing Street in London (and you can often see them on the background during news conferences and interviews carried out on the street outside - and yes, I'm geeky enough to notice such things!).

Oh, yes... I have a friend who saw her live at her height and he said that he was off his face on EVERYTHING and sobered up instantly when her set started, an hour late, with her using an adoring member of the audience as a human bootscraper.
