Description

The Post Office at 28 Main Street in Kirkcolm is a mid-19th century, two-storey, three-bay house located at the end of a terrace. The building is harled, with the northern elevation featuring painted rubble. It has a painted shallow base course, painted channelled pilaster strips, and painted raised tabbed margins. There is a modillioned course below the guttering at the eaves.

On the eastern elevation facing Main Street, there is a pilastered doorpiece at the center, complete with a cornice and an angled tablet above, as well as a recessed margin and a letter-box fanlight. The ground and first floors have regular fenestration. To the right, there is a painted brick pillar that contains a post-box.

The southern elevation is adjoined to No 26 Main Street, which is listed separately. The northern elevation is blank above a rubble outbuilding that is attached at ground level. This outbuilding has a flat corrugated iron roof and features a door and a window, with the window formerly being a door.

The building has modern glazing, a mutual concrete coped skew to the south, and a scrolled skewputt. There is a mutual painted rubble gablehead stack to the south, while the gablehead stack to the north has been removed. The roof is covered with small purple slates, and it has cast-iron rainwater goods and octagonal cans.
