Basic Biographical Details Name: | David Barclay | Designation: | Architect | Born: | 1846 | Died: | 13 July 1917 | Bio Notes: | David Barclay was born in Glasgow in 1846, the son of Hugh Barclay, sculptor, and his wife Agnes R Marshall (Iain Paterson) or Margaret Buchanan (W J Johnston) and much younger brother of Hugh Barclay architect. He was articled to his brother, then in partnership with Alexander Watt, on 1 January 1861. Already in the office was James Sellars who had joined it in 1857. All three became members of Alexander Thomson's circle, David writing a memoir of him in 1904. During his apprenticeship David started drawing under the painter A D Robertson and at the end of it undertook the continental study tour which was the foundation of his French and German influenced neo classicism.
The early success of the Barclay & Watt practice was not sustained into the next decade. By the mid-1860s they appear to have been seriously short of commissions. James Sellars left for James Hamilton's, although at least for a time some sort of working relationship remained, Dr Colin Sinclair (who joined the firm some years after Sellars' death) being uncertain as to its extent; and at or about the same date Alexander Watt left to re-commence practice on his own account with an office at 67 Renfield Street. But by January 1871 Hugh's business had picked up sufficiently for David to become a partner, their first joint work being the very sophisticated Italian Romanesque Duke Street United Presbyterian Church. The Convalescent Home at Kilmun followed in 1873 and in 1875 the firm made its name for a second time wirh the Albany Academy in Ashley Street which established their reputation for educational buildings and set a pattern for a long series of rather Germanic Italianate-profiled board schools with sophisticated neo-Schinkelesque banded rustication, pilastrades, architrave frames spanning several bays, unfluted Ionic columns and herms were their favourite motifs. Considerable numbers of their schools were built for the Glasgow area school boards throughout the later 1870s and earlier 1880s: Melville Street (1878), Pollokshields (two blocks, 1879 and 1882), Abbotsford Place, (two blocks again, 1879 and 1893), Springfield (1881), Harmony Row and Rutland Crecent (1883)and Hillhead High (1884), all in Glasgow, and Jean Street (1883) and Clune Park (1886) in Port Glasgow, the grandest of them being the privately funded new building for Glasgow Academy at Kelvinbridge (1878). Of these Rutland Crescent was virtually indistinguishable from the work of James Sellars.
In 1879 Charles Barry, Junior, President of the Royal Institute of British Architects, awarded the Barclays the commission for the new Municipal Buildings at Greenock. It was then by far the most ambitious project of the kind undertaken in Scotland, with a central public hall and an internal carriage drive closely modelled on English precedents, and one which escalated during construction when the Municipal Buildings in Glasgow threatened to put it in the shade. In deference perhaps to the assessor's known preferences, its facades were more Renaissance than Greek with domed corner towers, pedimented attic pavilions, and a 250-foot tower crowned by a Corinthian peristyle, all liberally enriched with granite-shafted columns and caryatid figures. It took the firm into the premier league and enabled it to ride out not only the severe recession of the 1880s but the professional disaster of David's arrest on a charge of culpable homicide (of which he was acquitted) following the collapse of a playshed at Pollokshields in 1882. The brothers won the competition for the unbuilt municipal buildings opposite the Clark Town Hall in Paisley in 1883 and secured the commission for the giant Sellarsesque Greek Ionic temple of St George-in-the -Fields in 1885, clearly designed as a challenge to Thomas Lennox Watson's Roman Corinthian Wellington UP Church of 1882.
In the later 1880s the Barclays abandoned pure neo-Greek detail in favour of straightforward Italian palazzo treatments first seen at Annette Street School in Govanhill in 1886, but best exemplified at Lorne Street, Govan (1892) which has Ionic aedicules, fluted dwarf attic pilasters and diamond panels. These buildings were still very chaste in design but after Hugh's death in November 1892, uninhibited competition with the Northern European early Renaissance forms of architects such as James Thomson and his sons became the norm: indeed David set the pace for it in his competition win for J & P Coats Central Thread Agency Buildings on Bothwell Street in 1891, a long façade of thickly crowded aedicules, gables, turrets and chimneys which completely outdid the pioneer Glasgow examples of the genre, Thomas Lennox Watson's Citizen Building of 1889 on St Vincent Street Place and Alfred Waterhouse's Prudential Building on West Regent Street of 1890. Much more impressive as architecture than the Central Thread Agency was the giant Cumming and Smith warehouse of 1892 on Sauchiehall Street with its towering façade of deep giant arched recesses, extruded bay windows and dwarf-colonnaded eaves gallery, the arched recesses being enlarged and enriched red sandstone variants of those of his brother's cast-iron façade in Jamaica Street of thirty-five years earlier.
Hugh Barclay never sought election to the RIBA but David was nominated as part of Charles Barry junior and John Honeyman's recruiting campaign, his proposers being Honeyman, John Baird, and George Bell, and was admitted FRIBA on 3 January 1881. Like Rowand Anderson he subsequently allowed his fellowship to lapse, probably as a result of the disagreements within the Institute on registration, but in 1899 he was re-nominated as President of an Allied Society, the Glasgow Insittute of Architects, and for a time he was a Council member.
In deference to his brother's memory, David retained the practice title of H & D Barclay but throughout the 1890s his architecture became bigger-scaled, a trend first seen at Cumming and Smith's warehouse on Sauchiehall Street in 1891 which reached gargantuan proportions in the reticulated façade of Hunter Blair's warehouse on Queen Street in 1899. In 1901 he won the limited competition for the Glasgow and West od Scotland College of Science and Technology, then the largest single educational building constructed in the UK. The final design has details in common with his buildings of the 1890s but the inspiration for its giant buttressed facades came from Julien Guadet's Hotel des Postes in Paris.
By 1909 David Barclay was reported as having designed no fewer than 40 schools but his late work is variable in quality. His last work, the twin-spired Jordanhill Training College (1913-1915), was again won in competition, but was curiously idiosyncratic in design.
David Barclay was smaller in stature than his brother with a big moustache, approachable but 'very downright and decided', qualities still evident in his correspondence on the building of the Royal College at the University of Strathclyde. In later years at least he was the driving force behind the practice. He was also more active in public life, serving on the RIBA Council and becoming Deacon of the Mason Incorporation, Master of the Lodge of Glasgow St John no 3, and Provincial Grand Architect of the Province of Glasgow. He was also President of the Glasgow Institute of Architects in 1900 and Vice President of the Glasgow Art Club. He died of cardiac valvular disease, on 13 July 1917 at his home, Laventille, 437 Crow Road, leaving moveable estate of £3,480 13s 10d. He was survived by a son, David R Barclay, who was also an architect but who emigrated to Canada, and three daughters.
The practice was continued by Dr Colin Sinclair (1879-1957) who had joined the firm as an apprentice shortly before Hugh Barclay's death. He had remained as assistant until 1907 when he joined Professor Gourlay's staff at the Royal College, returning to take over the practice in the year of Barclay's death. | Private and Business AddressesThe following private or business addresses are associated with this architect: | | Address | Type | Date from | Date to | Notes |  | 136, Wellington Street, Glasgow, Scotland | Business | 1880 * | | |  | 6, Buckingham Terrace, Glasgow, Scotland | Private | 1880 | | |  | 19, Kelvinside Terrace South, Glasgow, Scotland | Private | 1886 or 1887 * | | |  | Ingleside, Scotstounhill, Glasgow, Scotland | Private | 1888 | 1892 or 1893 | |  | 5, Hawarden Terrace, Partickhill, Glasgow, Scotland | Private | 1896 or 1897 * | | |  | 245, St Vincent Street, Glasgow, Scotland | Business | Before 1900 | After 1914(?) | |  | 30, Kinsborough Gardens, Glasgow, Scotland | Private | 1906 * | | |  | Laventille/437, Crow Road, Glasgow, Scotland | Private | Before 1914(?) | 1917 | |
