Paton And Baldwin's Sports Pavilion, Tullibody Road, Alloa

Paton and Baldwin's Sports Pavilion, located on Tullibody Road in Alloa, was designed by William Kerr and built between 1924 and 1926. This two-storey and attic structure has a roughly H-plan layout, featuring a symmetrical design with a four-bay center flanked by two advanced bays. It is situated next to a recreation ground that includes a bowling green. The pavilion is characterized by its octagonal stair towers with ogee roofs on the side elevations and is rendered with a cill course at the first floor on both the front and rear elevations. The first-floor openings are positioned close to the overhanging eaves, and there is a central three-stage square timber lantern with a clock on the second stage, which is glazed on the third stage. The building also has segmental-arched dormers.

The northwest (entrance) elevation features steps leading up to a full-width multi-pane glazed veranda that is recessed in the center, with bays separated by square pilasters. It has a timber bargeboard and two-leaf glazed entrance doors to the left. There is a ground floor window in the center of the advanced bays, which has a blocked semicircular fanlight.

On the northeast elevation, the center is recessed and includes a first-floor balcony supported by paired cast-iron Tuscan columns, with a plain iron balustrade. A stair tower is located to the right of the balcony, and the wallhead features chamfered ashlar copes along with a recessed glazed clearstorey above, while there are blocked openings below the wallhead.

The southeast elevation has a two-bay center flanked by two advanced bays, with an entrance at the center and returns of the advanced bays. There is a rectangular brick stack on the southeast pitch of the advanced bays to the right.

The southwest elevation mirrors the northeast elevation. The pavilion predominantly features multi-pane glazing in timber casement windows. It has a pantiled, piended roof with bell cast overhanging eaves, and a pitched felt roof over the veranda. The stair towers and clock lantern are topped with ogee copper roofs, and there is a flagpole on the stair towers along with square ridge ventilators.

The interior, as seen in 2012, has been remodelled in the later 20th century and includes a large hall on the first floor with timber dado rails and a timber floor. Some areas are panelled with upper parts featuring glazed timber doors. The dog-leg staircase in the octagonal towers has iron balustrades and a timber handrail.
