Description
Hyndland Public School, located at 12 Airlie Street in Glasgow, was designed by architect H E Clifford and completed in 1910. This rectangular and symmetrical building features classical details and consists of three storeys plus a basement.
The exterior is made of polished red ashlar, with a channelled design at the ground level and rustication at the basement. On the north elevation, there is a prominent taller central bay with rusticated quoins, a balcony on the first floor, and six elongated windows on the second floor. The ground level includes a single-storey advanced wing with bi- or tripartite windows and entrance porches on both the east and west sides. Wide doorways are accessed by steps and are flanked by banded pilasters that support urns, with a frieze featuring swag-tails above the double-leaf doors.
The west elevation has 15 bays, with flat voissoirs above the ground floor windows. The two outermost bays are blind above the ground floor. The first, third, and eleventh bays feature corbels that support pillars flanking windows topped with open pediments. Pilasters divide the first-floor windows, and at the second floor, three-quarter length pilasters separate the windows. Bands over the ground and first floors are inscribed with "Hyndland Public School, 1910" and "Govan Parish School Board," respectively. The building has a mutule main cornice and a modern concrete tile roof.
The south elevation consists of nine bays, with the central three bays advanced and featuring bipartite windows flanking tripartite windows. A band course is present at the second floor. The east elevation is composed of 14 bays of stugged ashlar, with single windows and a tall off-centre stack that has moulding detail near the top. There is a cill band at the ground level and a moulded band course at the second floor.
The boundary and retaining walls are made of stugged red ashlar with curved coping, supporting cast-iron railings. At the northwest angle, there is a round-arched ashlar gateway with plain cast-iron gates, leading to a double flight of steps that provides access to a raised playground.
