A bus shelter in George Square became a talking point online after a replacement glass panel was fitted upside down.
The shelter, used by City Sightseeing tour buses, features images of the bell, fish and bird from Glasgow's coat of arms. The mistake was shared by the social media account Clowncil of Glasgow, prompting plenty of jokes about the bell that never rang.
The error was spotted in the morning, and by mid-afternoon the panel had been removed and refitted correctly.
Glasgow City Council said the issue was resolved as soon as it became aware of it.
