Victoria Bar, 105 Shore Street, Gourock

The Victoria Bar, located at 105 Shore Street in Gourock, is an early 19th-century building that may include some earlier elements and has undergone later alterations. This former coaching inn features a two-storey, five-bay structure, arranged in a 3-2 grouping, with a stables courtyard at the rear. The main block is rendered and harled, while the courtyard buildings display both rendered and exposed pink rubble. The building has a rubble base course and rusticated quoins.

On the east elevation, there is a three-bay symmetrical block to the left, featuring a doorway with an architrave and hoodmould, a single window on the first floor, and additional windows in the flanking bays. Two canted dormers with piended roofs are also present. To the right, there is a two-bay block that is nearly contemporary, showcasing scrolled skewputts, three windows on the ground floor, two on the first floor, and a dormer similar to those on the left.

The north elevation is gabled with an apex stack and includes single windows and secondary doorways. The south elevation mirrors this with single windows as well. The west elevation has been significantly altered, with later brick additions enclosing a semi-circular stair tower. The dormers feature four-pane timber sash and case windows, while the remaining building has replacement windows. The slate roof is equipped with metal flashings and has a tall coped apex with a mutual stack.

Inside the bar, much of the original layout has been changed, but it retains an early 20th-century timber U-plan bar counter with a stone spittoon at its base. The gantry was replaced in 1993.

The courtyard buildings consist of various outbuildings that served the coaching inn, forming a U-plan open to the north. There is a two-storey, four-bay block to the west, complete with apex stacks and graded slates, and a single-storey, piend-roofed link connecting to the street front bar at the south of the group.
