Sonny Posted May 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 PICTURE 127 CLUE. Tricky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insaintee Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 This is reminiscent of the Italianate style of the Town hall and bridge. But it looks fairly domestic. The architect W H Lynn was one of the big boys and I don't think he did anything else in Paisley, (no doubt Sonny will put me right here), I'm going to stick with the town hall and this the south side door?
