Description
St Bride's Episcopal Church, located at 61 Hyndland Road in Glasgow, is a Grade B listed building designed by architect G F Bodley in 1903-1904, with the chancel and eastern part of the nave completed during that time. The tower and western part of the church were added by H O Tarboltan between 1915 and 1916. This unfinished Gothic church is constructed of bull-faced red ashlar with polished margins, quoins, and dressings.
The west elevation features a buttressed gable with a large pointed arch hood-moulded window that showcases late 14th century reticulated tracery. A wide flight of steps leads to a pointed arch hood-moulded door. To the north, there is a three-stage tower that is buttressed at the corners. The lowest stage includes a statue set in a niche on the west side, while the second stage has four small traceried blind openings, and above are tall traceried pointed arch belfry openings. The tower is topped with a corbel course and an embattled parapet at the third stage. The south flank of the church is rendered brick and buttressed, while the north flank features an incomplete porch to the west, which is a single storey with a sculpted parapet.
Inside, the church has a five-bay nave that is separated from two north aisles by an arcade with clustered columns. There is a three-bay tower aisle with a Lady Chapel to the east and a small ogival recess to the northwest. The nave has a ribbed and panelled roof, while the main aisles have a flat panelled ceiling. A rood beam and rood are present at the chancel. The interior also features carved oak choir stalls and a pulpit on a marble base, along with an elaborate chancel arch that includes a gilded and painted crucifixion. An organ is located in the loft at the northwest. Additionally, there is a carved oak font from 1893 and a statue of the Virgin and Child in a niche in the Lady Chapel, created by Eric Gill in 1915. The stained glass was designed by arl Parsons around 1920. The nave has a pointed arch ceiling, while the aisles feature a coffered ceiling. The south flank is rendered brick and buttressed.
