Description
5 Wood Street in Portsoy is an earlier 19th-century building that was later raised to create a dormerless attic. The exterior features pointed rubble harling, with the rear and gable being harled and some areas having rendered margins. The building has a central door and a single-storey rubble extension at the east gable, which was formerly a baiting shed and includes a door and window. The windows are modern two-pane plate glass timber sash and case. The end stacks have been renewed, and the roof is covered with slate, featuring a Velux light and a pottery ridge.
