ST Andrews by the Green

 ST Andrews by the Green as the name suggests lies opposite Glasgow Green at the start of  the city's East End.

The Church is a very simple plain box design, it has a filled pediment and very plain windows.

The Church was built in 1750,the architect's being William Paul and Andrew Hunter, the denomination was Episcopalian which didn't go down to well in an area that was staunch Presbyterian .

Things got worse when it was found to have cushioned seats, but worst of all was that it had an organ, music in the church was despised by hard-line Protestant's .

The master mason and architect Andrew Hunter was excommunicated for his involvement with the church. Its now being used an office.

Martyrs Public School

 Martyrs Public School is situated in Parson Street Townhead.

The architects were Honeyman and Keppie,the school was built in 1898,it would have been surrounded by tenements, these days it sits behind some trees overlooking a busy road. 

At the time of building Charles Rennie Macintosh was a senior assistant in the practice, you can see his influence on the doors ,windows and cupolas.

The school is mainly built from red sandstone, the inside has some Art Nouveau details.

If your looking for classic Macintosh you wont find it in this building ,just the odd glimmer of what the future would bring.

The building is listed as category A , it is currently up for sale.
