Gutted by fire in 2005, and missing its roof, this B Listed building was, for many years, pretty much abandoned and left to fall apart. However, in the last few years it has been very sympathetically turned into residential housing (including recasting the beautiful, Thomsonesque original railings) ensuring that this little gem will be safe for years to come.

The former Mission Hall on Nithsdale Drive in Glasgow. Built in 1887 and designed by Alexander Skirving, it's very strongly influenced by Alexander 'Greek' Thomson.

This is a great example of how a derelict, at-risk building can be bought back into use and so saved for the future.
