Historic video of Scotland from 1901 shows life in Glasgow in 'beautiful' colour

Footage showing life in Glasgow back in 1901 has been uncovered that has been hailed as an "amazing historic film".
These days, Jamaica Street in the centre of the city is known for being the home of iconic nightclub Sub Club, as well as The Crystal Palace Wetherspoon pub, but over 100 years ago, it was a very different story.

"Traffic flowing in 1901 at a far more rapid pace than the modern-day scene of Glasgow."
The video then shows a large number of people walking down a street, taking up the entirety of the road.
The narrator explains: "The film finishes with capturing a group of employees in a parade, marching at the top of Jamaica Street."
Since being uploaded, the video has received many comments from the public on YouTube and Facebook, where it was shared on the Scotland from the Roadside group.
One stated: "What an amazing film archive!"
"Very cool," a second simply said, while a third noted: "Incredible how busy it was".
A fourth wrote: "These
