Museum, Francis Street, Stornoway, Lewis

The building is a former free church seminary located on Francis Street in Stornoway, Lewis, consisting of two distinct blocks.

The block on the left, which is the nearest to the west, is a single-storey structure featuring Tudor-arched windows and is possibly a church that has been repurposed. It is constructed from rubble with rendered dressings that resemble red ashlar, likely added in the late 19th century to what appears to be a mid-19th century building. The roof is slate-covered, and the front has a gabled design with three stepped windows featuring small-paned glazing. There is a projecting chimney breast on the west side, and a gabled jamb at the north end of the west flank. The main roof extends over a porch in the re-entrant angle, and there is a projecting gable on the east flank that is an addition made in a sympathetic style.

The block on the right, nearest to the east and located at the corner with Matheson Road, is a two-storey structure with a gabled design and a long flank wall facing Francis Street. It is built from imported brown rubble, possibly from Loch Broom, with contrasting concrete details. The slate roof features mullioned windows, with six closely spaced bipartite windows at the ground floor and three sets of 3-2-3 light windows at the first floor. Each of these windows has a gabled head that rises above the eaves, along with arch details above the window heads. An axial ventilator has been cut down, leaving only the base.

Both blocks are set behind a low boundary wall topped with simple, spiked cast-iron railings.
