Description
28 Low Street in Banff is a two-storey corner building dated 1900. It features two bays facing Low Street and four bays along Bridge Street, with the entrance located in a curved and recessed angle bay. The building is constructed from bull-faced granite with tooled granite dressings and has a concrete crenellated wallhead. The windows are regularly arranged, with long windows on the ground floor and a doorway flanked by windows on the Bridge Street elevation (No. 48 Bridge Street). The entrance has double-leaf panelled doors, and the ground floor windows are fitted with plate glass glazing, while the first floor has 2-pane timber sash and case windows. Above the ground floor windows, there is a continuous tooled granite fascia band, with a similar band course above the second floor windows, situated below the concrete crenellated wallhead that features a datestone at the angle. The building is topped with tall corniced chimney stacks.
