Description

The Lass O'Gowrie Public House is a mid-19th century building that was altered around 1900. It is constructed of red brick with decorative elements made from deep red, orange, and green glazed terracotta, topped with a slate roof. The building has a rectangular shape and is situated on an island site, featuring chamfered corners at the west end.

It stands two stories tall over a basement, with a six-window facade facing Charles Street and a two-window west end. The ground floor is adorned with richly-decorated tiled cladding, including pilaster panels topped with debased Ionic capitals that have pendants featuring bell-flower decorations. There is a doorway, offset to the left of center, designed in a neo-Baroque style with an open segmental pediment. A frieze of green tiling displays raised lettering that reads "WINES AND SPIRITS" and "BOTTLED ALES AND STOUT" at the front, "LASS-O-GOWRIE" at the corner, and "ALES AND STOUT" at the west end. The windows feature engraved plate glass, with three to the right, one to the left, and two at the west end. The corner doorway has been altered to serve as a window.

On the first floor, the segmental-headed windows all have keystones, with the window above the door being blind and the others featuring recessed four-pane sashes. A prominent modillioned cornice encircles the building. The hipped roof has a chimney at the ridge. Although the interior has been altered, the basement remains in use as a brewery.
