Description
32-38 Dixon Avenue, originally built as Hutchesontown Free Church between 1891 and 1893, was designed by architect John Bennie Wilson. It later became Crosshill Victoria Church and is now the Al-Farooq Education and Community Centre as of 2021. The conversion has preserved the exterior of the building.
The church features a Gothic style with traceried openings and occupies a corner site. It has a two-bay gable facing Dixon Avenue, which includes a pair of traceried gallery windows. There is a porch at the end of the west side aisle that also faces Dixon Avenue. The side facing Langside Road has a tall side aisle, a shallow transept, and an octagonal turret next to the porch that has an open belfry stage topped with a facetted slated spirelet. The building is constructed from bull-faced red ashlar with polished dressings and has slated roofs.
Adjoining the church is a hall on the east side, which features a wide traceried window in its gable facing Dixon Avenue. The property is enclosed by an iron-railed boundary along the street, which includes gabletted piers.
