Description

The University Pitt Club, built around 1865 by Sir Mathew Digby Wyatt, features a stucco portico with three bays. It is supported by Ionic columns that hold up an entablature with a dentilled pediment. In the tympanum, there is a circular plaque displaying a profile bust of Pitt. The building has three doorways, each with moulded architraves. Above the side doors, which are lower than the central entrance, there are panels adorned with swags and cornices.
