Description

The Keg Lounge Bar, located at 7 High Street in Peebles, is a building dated between 1878 and 1887, with an extension added shortly after. It is a three-storey and attic structure with an irregular six-bay facade, originally designed with four bays, and features classical ornamentation. The ground floor contains three shops, a bar on the first floor, and flats above. The exterior is made of stugged cream sandstone ashlar with polished dressings.

On the ground floor, the original shopfront is situated at the center, featuring a door and a panelled pilaster to the right. The shop window is divided by a panelled Corinthian pilaster with a carved capital that supports consoled corbelling for a two-storey oriel above. The left bays are divided by panelled pilasters, with a door leading to the bar on the right and a pend to the rear on the left. The two right bays have later shopfronts. The upper floors are defined by band courses and panelled pilasters, topped with a cornice and a panelled parapet. The windows are regularly spaced, with roll-moulded arrises and raised margins on the first floor. The third and last bays from the left feature canted windows on both the first and second floors, with a segmental pediment above the first floor on the right. The second bay has an aedicule date panel at the second floor. There are corner pilasters on the right, where the street steps back, topped with a ball finial on the parapet pedestal, and a channelled pilaster on the upper left above the adjoining building. The roof has four wallhead dormers with pedimented gableheads; the broader one on the center left is pilastered, while the one on the right is bipartite, with finials still present on the two right pediments. A later lead rooflight is located at the center.

The rear elevation, made of brick, is largely obscured by a range extending down the pend. The building features timber sash and case windows, with both four-pane and plate glass. The roof is covered with grey-green slates, has ashlar-coped skews, and coped ashlar apex stacks.

The interior was not seen in 1994.
