Description

64-66 Kirk Street in Campbeltown is an earlier 19th-century, two-storey, three-bay house with a rectangular plan and a single-storey attic annexe that projects to the north.

The main house, numbered 66, features a symmetrical façade facing Kirk Street, with smooth cement-rendered walls and dressings, all painted. It has a base course, raised margins around the windows, and a pilastered entrance door at the centre of the ground floor, topped with an entablature and block pediment.

The rear elevation is nearly symmetrical and roughcast, with some exposed ashlar dressings around the windows. At the centre, there is a round stair tower with a single-storey addition that projects into the re-entrant to the left.

The annexe, numbered 64, is a two-bay, single-storey addition, also roughcast, featuring a base course, a window on the left, and an entrance door on the right. There is a rubble wall with a vertically-boarded timber door at the north end of the street elevation.

Most openings have plate glass timber sash and case windows. The entrance door at No 66 is timber with a two-pane glazed upper section and a six-pane rectangular fanlight above, along with a glazed timber screen and door in the vestibule. No 64 has a modern panelled entrance door. The roofs are covered in grey slate, with the pitch continued over the stair tower, and there are cast-iron gutters and downpipes at the principal eaves. A modern box dormer is present on the rear pitch of the annexe. The main house features piend-roofed, slate-hung timber dormers over the outer bays of the principal front, and a gabled timber dormer on the right of the rear pitch, complete with barge boards, a finial, and a four-pane timber sash and case window. The main house has roughcast, coped stacks with circular cans at the gables and ridge of the annexe, and rendered skews.

At the rear of No 64, there is a random rubble lean-to outbuilding with a grey slate roof and a vertically-boarded timber door.
