Description

The Vale of Leven Constitutional Club, located on Bank Street in Alexandria, is an early 20th-century, two-storey, three-bay rectangular-plan building. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar, featuring ashlar margins and dressings, with a channelled base course, a moulded string course, and a corner turret.

On the main elevation, there is a segmental-headed door at the centre, flanked by bipartite windows. Above the door, a large plaque with a moulded surround is inscribed with "Vale of Leven Constitutional Club." To the left of the plaque is a bipartite window, and to the right, there is a single window. The corner turret has a candlesnuffer roof, and there is a later addition of a large tripartite dormer at the centre of the roof.

The building features timber plate glass sash and case windows, as well as some uPVC windows. The roof is covered with grey slate and includes a wallhead stack.
