Description

37 Scotland's Close in Bo'Ness is a mid-19th century building that may include some earlier 18th-century elements. It is a two-storey house with a raised basement and features three bays with classical detailing. The building has been converted into commercial premises in the mid-20th century and is part of an irregular terrace. The exterior is finished in cement render, showing signs of ashlar dressings, and has an eaves course.

On the principal elevation, the window openings are located in the outer bays of the basement, while the ground floor has steps leading up to a central doorpiece flanked by windows. The first floor displays regular fenestration.

The west elevation, facing Waggon Road, is mostly hidden by a boundary wall. All openings have been blocked, and the roof is made of corrugated metal. The interior has been completely removed.
