Description
35-37 High Street in Kinghorn is a later 19th-century, three-storey and attic tenement building with four bays, featuring a shop on the ground floor. The structure is made of squared and snecked rubble with ashlar dressings and quoin strips, and it has a cornice at the ground floor.
On the northwest elevation facing High Street, the two central and left bays contain a traditional shop front, which includes a panelled two-leaf door in the centre flanked by fixed display windows. To the right, there is a broad pend opening. Above the shop, there are four windows on each floor, with two piended, canted dormer windows that are slate-hung over the outer bays.
The first-floor windows have plate glass glazing with top openings, while the second-floor windows have a timber sash and case effect. The dormer windows feature pivot openings. The roof is covered with slates, and there are coped ashlar gablehead stacks with a full complement of cans, ashlar-coped skews, and decorative cast-iron downpipes with rainwater hoppers.
