Former Nurses Home, Bangour Village Hospital

The Former Nurses Home at Bangour Village Hospital was designed by Hippolyte J Blanc, with construction starting in 1898 and completed in 1906, and later extended by E J MacRae in 1931. This building is a three-storey and attic structure featuring 11 bays, designed in a restrained Scots Renaissance style. It has a single-storey linking corridor to a later 1931 extension, which is also three-storey and has 14 bays. The building is prominently located at the rear of the former Bangour Village Hospital complex.

The exterior is made of roughly coursed and snecked red sandstone, accented with contrasting cream ashlar margins and quoins. It features a base course and cornice, with round-arched dormerheads that break the eaves, as well as small square, flat-roofed dormers. There are some later stairwell additions to the rear and east sides.

On the south elevation, the 11-bay block is to the left, with a slightly advanced central section of three bays. The entrance features a central segmental-arched doorway with a moulded and keystoned doorpiece and a recessed door, topped by a shouldered-gabled dormerhead. A cornice is present at the first storey. Flanking the entrance are two three-storey canted towers with ogee roofs and tall spike finials. The end bays are advanced and piended, with canted and square four-light windows on the ground floor and small tripartite roof dormers above. The 1931 extension to the right has a central pedimented bay with a window in the gable.

The roofs are covered with grey slates and decorative red ridge tiles, featuring piended designs. The building predominantly has a six-pane glazing pattern in the upper timber sashes, with boarded lower sashes in timber sash and case windows. There are tall, corniced ridge and wallhead stacks. The interior has not been seen since 2011.
