Description

Harveys Bar, located at 1-3 Burnbank Road and 2-4 Wellhall Road in Hamilton, is a public house designed by Gavin Paterson and dated 1895. This two-storey building features a Beaux-Arts/Baronial style and is situated on a corner site. It is constructed from red sandstone ashlar, with a stugged and snecked finish at the rear, and has a piended slate roof. Notable architectural details include a moulded cill course at the first floor, a moulded wallhead course, and a mix of single and bipartite architraved windows on the first floor, which have sash and case frames with plate glass on the bottom and multi-pane glass on the top. The ground floor has modern pilastered and consoled doors, windows, and a fascia board, along with decorative cast-iron rainwater goods featuring decorative hoppers.

On the Burnbank Road elevation, there is a door and two windows on the ground floor, with a segmental pediment above the fascia that was formerly over the door. The first floor has a central window, with a corbel-panelled coped crow-stepped gablet above, featuring a corniced stack to the left. To the left, there is a bipartite window, and to the right, there are two windows—one modern and one original, which has had its mullion removed and replaced with a modern frame.

The Wellhall Road elevation has a door in the centre that has been converted into a window, flanked by windows on the left and right. This elevation also features a segmental pediment over the fascia that was formerly above the door. The first floor has a bipartite window on the left and a single window on the right, with a gablet similar to that on the Burnbank Road elevation, but with a chimney stack to the right.

The angle elevation has a blank ground floor, while the first floor features a bipartite window with a pulvinated frieze and segmental pediment. The crow-stepped gable is coped and finialled, and there are round angle turrets topped with corbelled ball-finialled conical caps.
