2 High Street, Lochaline

1-5 High Street, Lochaline is a 2-storey terrace of five houses constructed in around 1899 by Ardtornish Estate. It uses a shuttered 'no fines' mass concrete construction method, pioneered and used extensively at Ardtornish and Lochaline from 1871 to 1906. The design is attributed to Ardtornish Clerk of Works, Samuel Barham.

Each house has a door and single window to the ground floor, and two windows to the first floor. There are pedestrian pends between nos. 2/3 and nos. 4/5 accessing rear outbuildings, also of mass concrete construction. The roofline of the terrace is relieved by a repeating pattern of broad roll-moulded chimney stacks. The roof has a grey slate covering and deeply overhanging bracketed eaves. The exterior concrete render, now mainly painted white, has incised lines to replicate ashlar masonry blockwork.

Windows are predominantly timber sash and case units. No. 1 retains the traditional 12-pane glazing pattern seen in early 20th century photographs of the building. No. 5 has plate glass in the lower sashes. The windows at No. 3 were replaced with non-traditional metal units prior to listing in 1988.

Iron railings, gates and gateposts (circa 1899) to small gardens fronting the terrace. A detached run of concrete outbuildings, with retaining walls and integrated steps accessing rear drying greens, extend the length of the rear of the terrace.
