Description
The Golf Professional's Shop and Starting Box, located on Aulton Road in Cruden Bay, was built in 1899. This single-storey, rectangular pavilion overlooks the links golf course and features painted, rough-hewn timber on the southeast and southwest sides. It has broad overhanging eaves supported by braced timber columns that create a veranda. The dado is decorated with herringbone-pattern timber panels, while vertically arranged timber is above. The entrance consists of two-leaf panelled timber and glazed doors with geometric fanlights.
On the southeast elevation, the doorway is off-centre to the left and is flanked by windows. To the right, there are tripartite windows with timber mullions, and a broad opening to the left has plain two-leaf doors along with a continuous timber bench. The southwest elevation features a boarded timber door flanked by a single fixed four-pane window, and a bipartite window with timber mullions and transoms on the outer right, enclosing the veranda, which has coloured glazing in the upper panes. There is a lean-to set back to the left.
The northwest elevation includes a lean-to with a door on the right. The northeast elevation has a doorway flanked by windows and an additional window to the right. A lean-to with a blinded single window is advanced to the outer right, along with a panelled timber door on the return.
The windows predominantly feature geometric patterns in the upper sashes, with four-pane lower sashes in timber frames, and six-pane glazing in the lean-to. The roof is red tiled with a piended design, although the northeast pitch and lean-to have replacement slates. Decorative terracotta ridging and finials adorn the roof.
Inside, as seen in 2013, the layout remains largely unaltered. There are two principal rooms lined with vertically boarded timber, a timber cill course, and timber roof trusses with sarking. A store room is located to the southwest, and toilet facilities are found in the lean-to section.
