Description
The Baptist Church Hall on Walker Street in Paisley dates from around 1900 and is likely designed by T.G. Abercrombie. It features a cruciform plan with an octagonal hall or church at its center. The building includes a two-storey range of rooms that face the church. The exterior is constructed of yellow stugged and snecked ashlar with polished dressings, while the rear elevations are made of rubble.
The front of the building facing Walker Street has two wide, gabled central bays with mullioned windows that have moulded arrises. The ground floor windows are seven lights, with two featuring blind cusped heads, and the upper floor has five-light windows. The doors also have moulded arrises in the re-entrant angles. There are large mullioned and transomed windows in the north, south, and west gables, along with two four-light windows in the long canted walls of the church.
The building is topped with a panelled parapet and a facetted octagonal roof over the church body, which features a central octagonal timber cupola and a bell-cast copper roof with a finial. Inside, there is a nine-sided galleried hall with cast-iron balusters on the stairs. The property also includes retaining walls and cast-iron railings.
