Springburn Station, Atlas Road, Glasgow

Springburn Station, located on Atlas Road in Glasgow, was designed by James Carsewell in 1885. This classical-style railway station features a single storey on the street elevation and three storeys with three bays on the south elevation. The building is primarily constructed of squared and snecked tooled sandstone, with the street elevation painted cream. It has a base course, eaves course, and a piended roof, along with a pedimented principal entrance and corniced pilasters.

On the north (street) elevation, there is a central, slightly advanced pedimented entrance doorway flanked by tall, narrow window openings that are now blocked, with a pair of pilasters on either side. To the left, there is an altered doorway and a shop window separated by a pilaster, with a pair of pilasters at the outer edge. To the right, the windows are also blocked, with remnants of a pilaster and cill, and a pair of pilasters at the outer edge.

The south elevation shows that most window openings have been boarded or bricked up, with a near-central doorway at ground level. There is an off-centre walkway at the second floor level leading down to the station platform, and one window on the second floor to the left remains intact.

The west elevation consists of two bays, with all window openings now blocked. The east elevation is partly obscured by the walkway descending from street level to platform level.

All window openings have been altered or boarded/bricked up, except for the top left window on the south elevation, which is a timber sash and case, two-pane over plate glass window with horns. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are replacement wallhead stacks on the west and east elevations.

The interior was partly seen in 2004 and includes a boarded-up fireplace in the ticket office. The boundary wall runs from west to east, constructed of coursed tooled sandstone on the street elevation and squared and snecked tooled sandstone on the platform elevation, curving northwards at the east end.
