Description
6 Moss Street in Paisley is a mid-19th century building that stands three stories tall with an attic. It features three bays facing Moss Street and four bays on the cross side, constructed from ashlar stone. The ground floor has been altered, but it retains a round-arched doorway on the upper floor, which is flanked by pilasters and topped with a consoled cornice and a blocking course on the front.
Above the ground floor, the cornice partially extends over the shop fascia and serves as a cill band for the first-floor windows. These windows are adorned with splayed, lugged architraves and cornices that include Thomsonesque antefixes. The second-floor windows are set above a cill course and have roll-moulded arrises, with small ornamented medallions placed between the upper windows.
The building is capped with a bracketed eaves cornice and a blocking course. It has a piended slate roof featuring corniced stacks and a dormer that faces Moss Street.
