Description
64 and 66 South Street in Bo'ness is a two-storey and attic dwelling built in 1883, designed in the Baronial style. It features a shop on the ground floor and is located on a corner site, forming part of an irregular terrace to the west. The building is constructed from squared and snecked rubble, with polished ashlar dressings and harled surfaces on the south side. The ground floor has a frieze and cornice, with a continuous hoodmould that incorporates downpipes. The windows include voussoired round-headed and segmentally-arched designs, with stone mullions and roll-moulded arrises.
On the principal (north) elevation, there is a full-width tripartite shop at ground level, which includes a tall two-leaf panelled timber door flanked by four-part fixed display windows. Above, a dominant first-floor bay features a hoodmoulded bipartite window, which transitions into a segmental-headed bipartite window and a glazed trefoil-headed arrowslit in the gablehead, topped with a finial. To the left, there is a narrow bay with a round-headed window beneath a stone balustrade.
The northeast corner elevation has a narrow canted section that is blank at ground level, with a single window on each floor above, leading up to an ogee dome adorned with a decorative cast-iron finial.
The east elevation displays a broad gabled bay on the left, featuring a relief carving that reads 'Erected 1883' along with a monogrammed 'JS' in a segmental panel beneath the continuation of the ground floor cornice from the north. To the right, there is a single segmental-headed window in the gablehead, while a lower bay on the right includes a single window at ground level and a bipartite window on the first floor.
The south (rear) elevation is a plain gabled structure. The building has plate glass glazing in timber sash and case windows, grey slate roofing, and a coped and banded squared rubble and ashlar stack. The ashlar coped skews are stepped to the north, and there are cast-iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers.
