Eastern District Hospital, 253 Duke Street, Glasgow

The Eastern District Hospital gatehouse, located at 253 Duke Street in Glasgow, was designed by Alfred Hessel Tiltman of London around 1904. This former hospital gatehouse is an elaborately-detailed building made of red ashlar and features a symmetrical three-storey structure with an attic. The front showcases French Renaissance ornamentation, primarily consisting of mullioned and transomed windows with leaded panes. At the ground level, there are arched openings, including a centre bay with curly gables and a triumphal arch arrangement that provides a vehicle entrance, along with a two-storey oriel above. The ends of the building are shallowly advanced and topped with finialed large pavilion roofs. The structure has a granite base, a steep-pitched slate roof, and brick flanks.
