The Russell Institute is a building in Paisley, Scotland.

History

The building was donated by Agnes Russell to the Burgh of Paisley. It was built as a memorial to her two brothers, Thomas and Robert Russell, who died in 1913 and 1920 respectively. The building was originally a child welfare clinic and is used near enough for the same purpose today. It is protected as a category A listed building.[1][2]
