Description

152-160 Elmbank Street in Glasgow is a classical tenement building dating from around 1855, featuring four storeys and a corner public house named William Reid, which was added in 1904. The building has seven bays across the front and five bays along the side, with one bowed bay at the corner. The first return bay on Elmbank Street is blind.

The exterior is finished in painted ashlar, with a moulded cill band at the first floor. A cornice above the second floor serves as a cill band for the third floor. The bowed bay is flanked by giant Doric pilasters that rise through the first and second floors, with dwarf pilasters on the third floor topped by a balustrade. All windows are sash and case, set in architraves that are consoled and corniced at the first floor, pedimented on the corner bay, corniced at the second floor, and plain on the third floor. Most windows are single-light, except for a double-light window with a stone mullion in the Bath Street bay.

On the Elmbank Street elevation, there are two to three bays. The entrance at No. 156 features Doric pilasters, a panelled door, and a fanlight. There are two wallhead stacks, one of which has been reduced.

The Bath Street elevation includes a close entry with Doric pilasters, a panelled door, and a fanlight with glazing bars. To the right, the channelled ground floor has one single window and one two-light stone mullioned window. There are central stacks and one wallhead stack.

The Griffin Public House has three unequal bays and a corner entrance bay with three-light windows. It features Art Nouveau timber mullions and transomed arched windows with stylised central pediments, etched glass, and decoratively moulded aprons. The building has a sloping frieze, a cornice, and coupled brackets above the entrance bay, along with double-leaf timber panelled and glass doors.

Inside the public house, there are Art Nouveau counter and carpentry fittings.
