1904 – Scottish Mutual Building, Donegall Square, Belfast
Architect: Henry Seaver

Built as the Scottish Temperance Building in 1904, this is an imposing if eclectic building in a vaguely baronial style finished in dark red Ballochmyle sandstone. In 2022 plans were announced to convert it into a boutique hotel. With attractive corbelled turrets at each corner, it has smaller turrets flank a central crow-stepped gable on one façade, and open arcading under deep eaves at fourth floor.
