Description
10 and 12 Stirling Street in Airdrie is a former bank building designed by J M Arthur in 1901. This three-storey structure features a gabled attic and is built in an asymmetrical 17th century revival style. The facade is made of red sandstone ashlar, while the sides and rear are constructed from square and snecked rubble. Notable architectural details include a base course, a semi-continuous cill course on the second floor, and a continuous cornice. The windows are stone mullioned and bipartite.
On the principal elevation, the ground floor has three grouped windows in the center, with a slightly lower door to the left and a canopied door within a recess to the right, which has blocked margins. A heavily bracketed balcony is present on the first floor, located in the center and left bay. To the left, there is a two-storey advanced canted bay with full-height pilastered mullions framing a coat-of-arms between the floors, topped with a coped parapet that breaks the eaves. The right side features regular fenestration on the first and second floors. At the attic gable head, there is a small stepped tripartite window that jetties out above, adorned with a central carved motif leading to a flagpole at the shouldered apex.
The rear elevation was not visible in 2001, while the west side elevation has a blind gable end. The east side elevation is obscured by an adjoining building. The windows have six-pane upper sashes and plate glass lower sashes. The roof is covered with grey slates and features lead flashing, coped skews, and gable stacks, along with cast-iron rainwater goods.
Inside, the ground floor has reproduction Edwardian bar fittings, while the upper stories have been modern refurbished into office spaces.
