Holy Cross Church And Presbytery, 109 Dixon Avenue, Glasgow

Holy Cross Church and Presbytery, located at 109 Dixon Avenue in Glasgow, was designed by Pugin and Pugin of Westminster and built between 1909 and 1911. This Romanesque church is situated on a corner site and features a basilican plan. It is constructed from bull-faced red ashlar with polished dressings and has narrow round-headed lights. The church has a lofty nave with a pair of doors on the south side, which is the liturgical west gable, tall lights, and a sculptured figure. The roofs are covered with slate.

Inside, the church includes round-arched aisle arcades and a shallow segmental-arched ceiling, along with elaborate stone carvings at the liturgical east end, primarily made of marble, including altars and other features.

The presbytery to the east is built in similar materials and is designed like a double villa, featuring outer bows. It has two storeys with attic dormers and sash windows. The entire property is enclosed by iron railings with intermittent bull-faced ashlar piers.
