5-7 South Street, Bo'Ness

5-7 South Street in Bo'Ness is a two-storey, four-bay shop and store building dating from the later to late 19th century, situated within an irregular terrace. The front is constructed of stugged ashlar, while the rear features roughly squared rubble with ashlar dressings. The ground floor has a dentilled cornice and frieze, along with an eaves course.

On the south elevation, there is a broad two-leaf boarded timber door with a plate glass fanlight located to the right of center. Flanking this door are fixed display windows, with two additional display windows to the left, all separated by pilasters and topped with a full-width frieze. The first floor contains four regularly spaced windows, and there are two traditional rooflights above.

The north elevation, facing North Street, features two windows on each floor, centered around a prominent shouldered wallhead stack. To the outer right, there is a narrow timber door with a blocked fanlight and a small window beneath the first-floor window. On the outer left, there is another small window below a boarded timber hayloft door, which has a deep plate glass fanlight above it. This elevation also includes two traditional rooflights.

The east elevation is blank and gabled, adjoining No 9 South Street on the left. The building has plate glass glazing in timber sash and case windows, grey slate roofing, and a cavetto-coped ashlar stack to the west. The skews are ashlar-coped, and there are cast-iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers.

Inside, the building features moulded cornices.
