Dragon decoration on bannister at Alloa

A carved dragon on a staircase bannister inside the Alloa Public Baths and Gymnasium.
The building was severely damaged by fire in the mid 1960s whilst the Turkish baths were being refurbished. The baths are no longer open, and the building now houses the
Spiers Centre.
