Love the Scots Baronial detailing in Dixon Halls on the border between Govanhill and Crosshill on the Southside of Glasgow. Built as municipal building in 1879, it was designed by Frank Stirrat.

A Scots Baronial style former burgh hall in Glasgow.
The glorous former Govanhill and Crosshill Burgh Halls on Cathcart Road in Glasgow. Built in 1879 and designed by Frank Stirrat in a Scots Baronial style, it was paid for by W.S. Dixon of the Govan Iron Works. As a result, it's now known as Dixon Halls.
