Description
The Chemist at 9 West Graham Street in Glasgow is a Scots Renaissance dispensary building designed by James Sellars of Campbell Douglas and Sellars, constructed between 1882 and 1884. It features a one-storey and attic structure with a two-storey central section and a tower, built from snecked rubble. A continuous basement band course runs along the building.
All windows are sash and case, primarily with eight-pane glazing. The two-storey polygonal tower is positioned in the re-entrant angle of the double gabled blocks and has a ground floor moulded cill band. It contains three windows, with the central window replaced by a commemorative plaque set in a columned niche above. The building has an eaves cornice and a blocking course, topped with a candle-snuffer, slated roof that includes lucarnes.
The single bay entrance section features pilasters and a recessed entry, with a fanlight that has a semi-circular Gibbs surround. There are two slim round-headed leaded lights with stone transoms, flanked by sculpted relief panels. The gable includes a sculpted panel and a ball finial. The lower three-bay section has symmetrical windows on the ground floor, a sculpted frieze that reads 'Sick Children's Dispensary', and three pedimented attic dormers, along with a gable finial. The roof is also slate.
