By renowned practice Bradshaw, Gass and Hope, 1929-32. Rebuilt after war damage. Contemporary inter-war classical complex on wedge shaped site, consisting of D-plan Library and Registrar's Office with straight front to road, small Porter's Lodge to side and free-standing rectangular-plan Theatre (formerly Town Hall) to rear with curving colonnade corresponding to Library.
Cream sandstone ashlar. Oval portico in antis with Roman Doric screen and Town crest in cartouche supported by swag above cornice; octagonal lantern. Original glazed revolving door in timber case with pair of panelled leaves; fluted Ionic pilasters with dentilled cornice and anthemion frieze and cresting; plate glass fanlight with wrought-iron fleur-de-lys grille.
This extensive inter-war classical composition is set tightly on a prominent corner site and it is a major example of this building type for the period. It was a prominent public commission by a successful English practice (Bolton) who came to specialise in Methodist churches and civic complexes during the inter-war period. Bradshaw Gass and Hope's extraordinary output is comparable to that of Vincent Harris, with commissions for other civic complexes won at Wimbledon, Stratford, Lewisham, Luton and Chesterfield. The practice was responsible for the reconstruction after it was bomb-damaged in WW2.
Built on the site of North Leith Manse as a condition of Leith's final incorporation with Edinburgh.
