The Original 59er Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) I've said it in the past, it pays to look up sometimes at Paisley's great buildings.................... albeit, you may well be focussed on what the inside has to offer as an alternative! It was erected around 1901 and the Arts & Crafts influence is obvious on the upper parts of the building as well as the great pub on the GF.

The Original 59er Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 A great early photo of the La Scala just after it has been refurbished (if I'm right from the info on the poster). The film that everyone is queuing for is "Show Boat" from 1936 so just pre-war. Just next door was Marks & Sparks and again the influence of the times (probably 1930's) is evident in the architecture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
