Commercial Inn, Cross Street, Campbeltown

The Commercial Inn on Cross Street in Campbeltown dates from around 1800. It is a two-storey building with an attic and has a rectangular plan, featuring a symmetrical front façade, an apsidal stair tower that projects to the rear, and a single-storey wing extending to the west. The ground floor of the main front has smooth cement-rendered walls, while the rest of the building is roughcast. There is a moulded string course and projecting cills at the first floor level. The entrance door is centrally located, flanked by windows, with additional windows in each bay on the first floor. The single-storey wing on the west gable has doors on both the north and south elevations, and the northwest corner is chamfered.

The entrance features modern multi-pane glazing and a nine-panel, flush-beaded timber door. There is a vertically-boarded timber door at the base of the stair tower and another at the rear of the window. The roof is covered with grey slate, curving over the stair tower and piending at the wing. The roughcast chimney stacks, shared with the east side, have circular cans. The principal pitch includes piend-roofed, slate-hung timber dormers with modern multi-pane windows. The skews at the west gable are rendered and painted.
