Description
1 Bank Street in Inverkeithing is a late 18th century, three-storey and attic rectangular-plan tenement that faces Bank Street. It is connected to a much-altered 19th century building that fronts High Street. The 18th century section is constructed of coursed rubble with droved stone cills and droved rybats, featuring a gable end that faces Bank Street. The 19th century addition is a two-storey, three-bay shop and tenement that is rendered with painted margins and includes a modern shop front.
On the principal elevation (east), there is a central door and a widened ground floor window to the right. Above the ground floor, there are two first-floor windows and two second-floor windows, with a single attic window to the right of the gablehead.
The south elevation features a door to the far left, which is a new opening, and a small square window to the far right, also a new opening. There are two first-floor windows in the outer bays and two second-floor windows in the outer bays, along with a single rooflight to the far left.
The west elevation, facing High Street, has a later 20th century plate-glass shop front with a glass and metal door to the right and a modern timber panel door with a large fanlight to the left. There are three evenly spaced first-floor windows. This elevation adjoins 2 High Street to the left and 6, 8 High Street to the right.
The building predominantly features plate glass in timber sash and case windows, with 20th century plate glass windows on the ground floor and attic. The roof is pitched and covered with grey slates, with straight ashlar skews, although the chimneystack is missing. Inside, there are no original features remaining.
