Description
134-138 High Street in Ayr is a mid-19th century, three-storey, five-bay classical building featuring modern shopfronts at the ground level. The exterior is made of polished red ashlar and includes a dentilled cornice. The central bay projects forward and has a panelled parapet with dies and a pediment. Giant pilasters extend through the first and second floors, dividing the bays.
The west elevation, which serves as the entrance, has a timber door at the center with a letterbox fanlight above. There are two shops on either side of the entrance, each with central glazed doors and flanking shop windows. To the outer right, there is a timber gate leading to a close. The central three bays on the first and second floors have single windows, while the flanking bays feature tripartite windows. The first-floor windows have panelled aprons, architraves, and cornices, except for the central bay, which lacks aprons. The flanking outer bays have pediments, and the second-floor windows have corbelled cills.
The building has plate glass timber sash and case windows, a grey slate roof, and corniced wallhead and apex stacks with polygonal cans. The interiors were not seen in 1998.
