Old Town Hall, 77, 79 Victoria Street, Newton Stewart

The Old Town Hall, located at 77 and 79 Victoria Street in Newton Stewart, dates from around 1800. It is a tall, two-storey building with a rectangular plan and a taller square tower at the southwest corner. The exterior is finished in painted rubble with raised painted angles and window margins.

On the west elevation, the main hall features three tall, wide round-arched openings. Currently, only the central opening serves as a doorway, fitted with double-leaf panelled doors and a fanlight above. Originally, all three openings were doors, but the two outer ones have been converted into windows. Above these, on the first floor, there are three Venetian windows, each adorned with raised key blocks and blocks at the springing points. The first-floor windows are sash and case style with multi-pane glazing. To the extreme right, there is a tall three-stage tower, which has a door on the ground floor, round-arched windows on the first floor (some of which are blind), and a tall third stage featuring clock faces set into round-arched openings. The tower is topped with a bell-cast lead roof.

The south elevation has a single bay, while the building features an eaves cornice, piended slate roofs, and granite stacks at the ends. A weathercock is also present. The rear elevation includes a two-storey, piend-roofed projecting bay.
