The sash windows have 12-pane glazing. Notably, the first and fourth bays of 1 Glasgow Street feature tripartite mullioned windows, while the remaining windows are single light. There is a moulded band course at the first floor cills, along with an eaves course and cornice. The building has wallhead and axial stacks, and is topped with slate roofs.
