307, 309, 311 High Street, 305A, Kirkcaldy

This building, located at 313-315 High Street in Kirkcaldy, dates from the 18th century, around 1780, and was altered in the mid-20th century, with a baker's oven added in 1909. It consists of a pair of three-storey tenements with shops on the ground floor, forming an irregular terrace. The exterior is harled, featuring raised stone margins and quoin strips, with an eaves lintel course.

On the south elevation facing High Street, the western block has three bays with a modern shop at ground level, a full-width fascia, and regular window arrangements on the upper two floors, although the first-floor window on the right has been altered. The eastern block has four bays, with a pend door at the centre, an early 20th-century shop to the right that includes an in-canted part-glazed door and a fanlight above, flanked by display windows beneath a corniced fascia with moulded end-stops. To the left of centre, there is an extension of the modern shop, with regular fenestration on the first and second floors and a chimney gablet at the centre above.

The north elevation features a variety of elements, including pitch-roofed stair towers on both the right and left sides, as well as a basket-arched pend entrance. The windows are primarily timber sash and case, with a 12-pane glazing pattern, except for the altered first-floor window and the shop windows. The western side has grey slate roofing, while the eastern side has asbestos. The building has ashlar coped skews with a scroll skewputt at the centre and left, the latter featuring ropework moulding. There are gablet stacks made of cavetto coped ashlar with polygonal cans, and ridge stacks that are a mix of ashlar and brick with cans.

At the rear of No. 315, there is a low brick and rubble building housing the baker's oven, which has stone flags at the oven mouth and a roof obscured by vegetation. The oven mouth features chamfered cheeks approximately three feet above the ground. Inside, there is a solid floor with large squared rubble blocks around the circumference and a small shallow domed brick roof that is scalloped above the springing point, with concentric courses at the apex, which is about two feet high. To the right, there is a small furnace with a cast-iron surround over a cast-iron door leading to the ash pit at ground level.
