Public Hall, 22 Main Street, Glenluce

The Public Hall located at 22 Main Street in Glenluce was built in 1878. It is a single-storey building with a three-bay gabled front facing Main Street and a basement on the west elevation due to the lower ground level. The structure is made of whinstone rubble that is squared and snecked on the north elevation, with red sandstone ashlar dressings. The doors on the north elevation feature bull-faced rybated margins with margin draft, and the windows have raised ashlar margins, all of which are chamfered. The west elevation has raised ashlar margins with projecting starts and tails, and bull-faced quoins with margin draft.

On the north elevation, which faces Main Street, the gabled front includes doorways in the outer bays and a window in the center, all topped with segmental-arched plate glass fanlights. A barometer by David Henry is set into the wall behind a glazed panel between the center and right bays. Above this, there is a moulded panel inscribed "Public Hall." The clock tower, which is corbelled and inscribed with "1878," is situated above, featuring a square gabled ashlar design at the apex. It has a string course raised as a hoodmould over circular clocks on the north, west, and east faces, with stop-chamfered angles and slight cusping at the apexes of the finialled gableheads. The roof is steeply pyramidal, finished with slates and a leaded apex.

The west elevation consists of five bays with regular fenestration at the ground floor. The center features a broadly gabled bay with a small moulded panel in the gablehead and a skew that continues across the apex. The basement windows have brick margins, and there are small flat-roofed pebble-dashed additions to the outer left and left of center. A later single-storey pebble-dashed addition with a piend roof is located to the right, featuring a door on the left and a bipartite window on the right.

The east elevation has several windows but is largely obscured by the adjacent building at No. 24 Main Street. The windows on the north side have fixed plate glass glazing, while the ground floor windows on the west side feature 4-pane glazing and the basement has small-pane glazing. The building has coped skews and simple skewblocks, with coped gablehead stacks on the west and south sides, and a wallhead stack on the right side facing east. The roof is covered with graded grey slates and features octagonal cans.
