Description
The Town House in Strathmiglo, dated 1734, features a slightly tapered, square plan, five-stage tower topped with a partly convex octagonal ashlar broach spire and a corbelled balustraded parapet, following the traditional 16th and 17th century Fife design. It is prominently located, projecting forward from the street line at the center of the historic burgh. A wrap-around stone forestair leads to a side entrance door to the tower at the first floor. The building is constructed of rubble stonework, with strip margined quoins and horizontal band courses that frame each of the five stages. The ground floor includes an arched doorway with a bi-fold timber door, a quadrangle pyramidal capped sundial, and an armorial panel on the second stage. The third stage has a small window, the fourth stage features clocks, and the belfry stage is adorned with paired lancet gothic windows.
