Galashiels Bowling Club And Boundary Walls, Scott Crescent

Galashiels Bowling Club, built in 1883 with alterations and additions in 1930-31 and a later addition from the 1970s, is a two-storey, five-bay pavilion designed in the Arts and Crafts style. The building has a square plan and features a piended roof with an advanced double gable at the center bays, which creates a viewing balcony with side screens above the entrance canopy. It is set back from the street and includes a brick base course up to the cill level, with half-timbering and rendered infill above. A two-storey section from the 1930s is located at the rear of the main pavilion, along with a later single-storey, five-bay rendered extension to the southeast. The bowling green is situated in front of the building to the southwest.

The pavilion has uPVC glazing and doors, a piended slate roof with overhanging bracketed eaves, decorative clay ridge tiles and finials, and cast-iron rainwater goods. Inside, there are notable late 19th-century features, including timber built-in ball storage boxes in the main ground floor room, timber panelling, and a simple internal layout. The ladies' locker room includes ball storage boxes dating from 1930. A simple timber stair leads to an open-plan bar area with timber boarding and exposed timber roof beams.

The boundary walls are made of coursed whin rubble with rounded copes to the north and southwest, while modern blockwork is found to the southeast.
