Description
2, 4, 6 New Bridge Street in Ayr is a building designed by John Kay around 1834, with later additions. It is a four-storey structure with four bays facing New Bridge Street and three bays on South Harbour Street, featuring a single bowed corner bay. The building is constructed of painted ashlar and includes several architectural details such as a base course, a deep eaves course, and a dentilled cornice at the ground floor shopfronts. There is a cill course at the second floor and a deep cill course at the third floor, along with an eaves course, a cornice, and a blocking course. The first-floor windows have architrave surrounds and cornices, with additional consoles on the bowed bay, while broad pilasters divide the third-floor windows, except for the bowed bay.
On the southeast entrance elevation, there is a recessed glazed timber door at the center of the bowed bay, flanked by side lights and shop windows. The upper floors feature regular fenestration with tripartite windows. The northeast elevation, facing South Harbour Street, includes the bowed bay on the left and three shopfront windows at the ground floor, with regular fenestration on the upper floors.
The ground floor features shop windows, while the first and second floors predominantly have 12-pane timber sash and case windows, and the third floor has 9-pane windows. The roof is a bowed grey slate design with stone skews, broad gablehead stacks, and circular cans. The interior was not seen in 1998.
