1 West Fergus Place, Kirkcaldy

1 West Fergus Place in Kirkcaldy is a late 19th-century, two-storey, three-bay house situated on a corner site. The building is constructed from squared and snecked rubble, featuring bull-faced long and short quoins and ashlar dressings. It has an eaves course, shouldered openings, stop-chamfered arrises, and stone mullions.

The principal elevation showcases a central bay with a step leading up to an exceptionally fine moulded shoulder-arched porch. This porch is flanked by polygonal plinths that support marble columns with stiff-leaf capitals, and it features trefoils on the spandrels, a cornice, and battered coping. The entrance includes a deep-set panelled timber door with flanking part-glazed lights and decorative cast-iron screens, topped by a three-part glazed fanlight. To the left, there is a canted tripartite window, while a bipartite window is located to the right. The first floor has further bipartite windows in the centre and right, and a tripartite window to the left.

On the east elevation facing West Fergus Place, the ground floor features a canted tripartite window to the right and a bipartite window to the left, with bipartite windows in each bay on the first floor. The west elevation includes a single-storey extension to the left with symmetrical fenestration above. The north elevation displays asymmetrical fenestration, featuring an advanced bay to the right and a tall bipartite window to the left, situated over a single-storey bay in the re-entrant angle.

The windows are fitted with plate glass glazing in timber sash and case frames. The building has coped ashlar stacks with tall cans, some of which are polygonal, and cast-iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers.

The property is also accompanied by gatepiers and boundary walls, which include two-stage, gablet-coped ashlar gatepiers with coped batters, as well as low ashlar-coped rubble and higher rubble-coped boundary walls.
