Napiershall Street Centre

Once Napiershall Public School, the Napiershall Street Centre is now home to a variety of community groups and other organisations. Admire its many original features and find out how different organisations are re-using the old classrooms to serve the community.

The original design of the school is said to be designed by Robert Alexander Bryden, who is listed within the Dictionary of Scottish Architects. The building, now owned by City Property, is in need of repair. However, it still boasts of much of the original features, such as, the arches, the plaque dedicated to the former headmaster - John B. Freebairn M.A - and a plaque of Queen Victoria. It is clear that what seemed to be a plain building from the outside had a very attractive interior. The building is now hosting tenants who have customised each of the original classrooms into office purpose rooms, and part of the tours organised will include visits to previous classrooms and some of the organisations who are now based there.
