Description

174-176 High Street in Kirkcaldy is a mid to later 19th century, three-storey, two-bay tenement with a piend roof, situated on a corner site and featuring a shop at ground level. The building is constructed of ashlar stone, which is painted at the ground floor, and includes an eaves cornice. The windows are pedimented and corniced, with raised lugged margins and stop-chamfered arrises.

On the north elevation facing High Street, there is a modern shop front that is not in keeping with the building's character, featuring a deep fascia at ground level. The first floor has two pedimented bipartite windows, while the second floor contains two additional windows.

The west elevation facing Tolbooth Street is largely blank at ground level, with a door on the outer right and a small display window to the left. The first floor features a bipartite window to the left of centre, a window in the bay to the right, and a narrower window adjacent to the outer right, all of which are corniced. The second floor has a window to the left of centre and windows to the right, similar to the first floor.

The second floor mainly has a six-pane glazing pattern, while the first floor has two-pane glazing over plate glass lower sashes, all in timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there is a cavetto coped and shouldered wallhead ashlar stack with some cans on the west side.
