Renfrew Parish County Chambers, Renfield Street, Renfrew

The Renfrew Parish County Chambers, built around 1900, is a two-storey building with an attic, constructed from red sandstone and featuring Scots Baronial details. The exterior consists of bull-nosed coursed rubble with polished ashlar dressings and a green slate roof.

The front elevation is symmetrical, showcasing a central entrance bay with a two-leaf door set in an architrave. Above the door, there is a balcony supported by paired corbels, flanked by armorial panels and a central inscription that reads 'Renfrew Parish Council Chambers'. The first floor features a canted bay with mullioned windows, a lintel band, and a gablet that has an architraved bipartite window leading to the attic. This gablet is crow-stepped and topped with a ball finial and corbelled angles. The bipartite window has a triple-arched head reminiscent of Maybole Castle.

On either side of the central bay, there are three bays of mullioned windows, with end plaster. The design includes cill bands, a lintel course on the first floor that connects to the central feature, a cornice, and a blocking course.

The side elevations are handed. The left side has the main range on the right, featuring three mullioned windows at ground level and two on the first floor, later separated by a corbelled panel strip that rises to a gable-head corniced chimney stack. The first-floor windows have arched and keystoned architraves with aprons. Pilasters similar to those on the front are treated as shallow buttresses. The rear block is lower, with three windows on the first floor and a single-storey wing with a hipped roof on the left.

The interior has not been seen. The property is enclosed by short boundary walls with gablet copes, gatepiers, and wrought-iron gates on both sides. The left wall includes a short section of wrought-iron railing.
