8. Galashiels Bowling Club Pavilion
Architectural Trail
The Galashiels Bowling Club pavilion is a good example of the ‘Arts and Crafts’ style, with an “English” half-timbered approach to the frontage. It is unusual in being a two-storey design with a balcony, though this was presumably done in part because of the limited overall site area.
Later in 1892, a similar two-storey half-timbered bowling club pavilion was built in Hawick.
This building is Category C listed.
