Art Deco Blue High Street Shop Shopping Corner
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Burton in Paisley, Scotland. Located on the corner of High Street and Gilmour Street, this iconic Burton store stands as a testament to art deco architecture. The image showcases the grandeur of its design, with giant Ionic pilasters adorning the first and second floors, exuding an air of elegance. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this architectural masterpiece. From the meticulously crafted parapet above to the vibrant blue hues that grace its exterior, it's clear that no expense was spared in creating such a remarkable structure. Built around 1929-1930, this Burton store has stood proudly for decades as a symbol of style and sophistication. It has witnessed countless shoppers strolling along High Street, drawn by its allure and charm. However, like all things in life, change is inevitable. In 2020-21, after serving generations of fashion enthusiasts as both a Burton and Dorothy Perkins store, it closed its doors for good. Nevertheless, through this stunning photograph by Nicholas Anthony John Philpot from Historic England's collection, we can still appreciate the beauty and significance that once graced this corner site on Paisley's bustling high street.
