1895 – Scottish Temperance League, Hope Street, Glasgow
Architect: J. Salmon & Son
This has been described as a “little orange-red Franco-Flemish” building, wiith “light-hearted details” (Williamson et al. 227) but it is five storeys high, so it is only small in comparison with the neighbouring buildings. Rather curiously, in view of its austere purpose, it stands out because of its fanciful, imported style, and all its sculptural embellishments.
