3-4 Bishop Terrace, Rothesay, Bute

3-4 Bishop Terrace is a mid to later 19th century house located in Rothesay, Bute. This symmetrical, single-storey building features a basement and an attic, and is designed in a simple classical style, forming a near pair with the adjacent No 5. The exterior is finished in whitewashed harl with painted margins and strip quoins. There is a band course at the principal floor level and a lintel course beneath the corniced eaves. The entrance is highlighted by a whitewashed rubble double-forestair with a pilastered entrance, while the sides are constructed of random rubble. A lean-to garage addition is set back on the outer right side.

On the northwest (entrance) elevation, the double-forestair consists of stone treads, decorative cast-iron uprights, and a cast-iron handrail leading to a recessed timber panelled door at the centre of the ground floor. This door is topped by a 6-light fanlight and flanked by Doric pilasters and a plain frieze. There are single windows in the basement and ground floor bays to the outer left and right, with 3-light canted dormers above. The windows are predominantly timber sash and case, featuring 2-pane upper sections and plate-glass lower sections, along with 2-pane timber dormers. The roof is covered with graded grey slate, featuring raised stone skews and rendered apex stacks at the northeast and southwest, although the cans are missing.

The interior was not seen in 1996. The property is bordered by a coped random rubble wall along Bishop Terrace, with paired whitewashed panelled square-plan piers flanking both pedestrian and vehicular entrances, topped with pyramidal caps.
