Paisley bound this weekend.
This is the beautiful Russell Institute on Causeyside street in Paisley. It was originally built as a paediatrics clinic in 1927 & was donated to Paisley Burgh by Miss Agnes Russell as a memorial to her two brothers. It's an absolutely amazing example of Art Deco architecture, the detail is incredible and I was spoiled for choice when it came to deciding which image to put on Blip today...still not sure I chose the best image, but after half an hour of indecision enough was enough!

The 'also rans' can be seen here:

and a history of the building's conception can be found here:

edit...I changed my mind about the final blip already!
