The Scottish Provident Building, Belfast

The Scottish Provident Building was built between 1897 and 1902. A triumphant finale to the Victorian era it announces its greatness over more than half of Donegall Square West. It is so rich in architectural detail that it would warrant its own book. This is a collection of photographs mainly showing the extravagant detail present in the building.
