West Dunbartonshire Council Offices
<p>How to get there : Church Street, in central Dumbarton, next to sheriff court.</p><p>Designed by William Leiper, architect, 1865. Damaged by fire 11.12.1882, and restored. Further deterioration over the years leading to it lying empty. Eventually gutted internally and its eternal walls and tower stablised. After many more years the remaining structure was just recently restored and became the frontage to new modern offices for the council.</p><p>French Gothic in style, this former academy was also known as the Burgh Halls. It is now known as the West Dunbartonshire Council Offices - or simply 16 Church Street to differentiate it from other council property.</p><p><img style="width: 0px; height: 15px;" src="/media/4225/burghh_dscf7461.jpg?width=0&height=15" alt="" rel="16624" data-id="16624" /><img style="width: 155px; height: 232px;" src="/media/4225/burghh_dscf7461.jpg?width=155&height=232" alt="" width="159" height="238" rel="16624" data-id="16624" /> <img style="width: 391px; height: 233px;" src="/media/4223/burghh_dscf7458.jpg?width=391&height=233" alt="" rel="16622" data-id="16622" /></p><p>The new extension, now covering a greater area than the older frontage, is in a simple, yet complimentary style. The historical and modern are intermingled.</p><p>Note opening hours Monday to Friday are during normal working hours. This gives you access to the foyer only, but there are views into the atrium and to an exhibition by the current architects. </p><p> </p>
