Description

This is a mid-19th century, two-storey building combining a shop and a house, situated on Main Street in Golspie. It features a wide, asymmetrical three-bay design. The building is harled with painted margins. The central bay contains a doorway, while a wide, advanced, and gabled bay extends to the left. This bay’s ground floor houses the shop, with a central entrance flanked by large, original square shop windows. Above, paired windows are aligned centrally, with a corbelled, corniced apex stack. The north-facing return elevation also features paired ground and first-floor windows. A round-headed pend doorway is located in the extreme right bay. The windows are fitted with four-pane glazing, and corniced end stacks project from the roof. The building is roofed with slate. The store at the east gable is not included in the listing. The building is included for its group value, reflecting its contribution to the historical character of the area. The statutory address is Golspie Main Street, Messrs Lindsay.
