Hall, Nile Court, Ayr

Nile Court in Ayr features a former classical Masonic Hall, designed by H V Eaglesham and built between 1895 and 1896. This late 19th-century building has a rectangular plan with six bays and is constructed from polished red ashlar. It includes a base course, a ground floor cill course, a central band course, an eaves course, a cornice, and a blocking course. Double pilasters rise from the ground floor cill course framing the second and sixth bays, while strip pilasters divide the bays. The building showcases banded rustication, Ionic capitals, and architraved openings.

On the southeast elevation, the entrance is pedimented and located to the outer left, featuring banded columns with Ionic capitals and a key-stoned arch. Steps lead to a two-leaf timber door. Above the entrance, there are four aligned windows, with an elongated window to the right and a single window at ground level. To the outer right, there are additional steps leading to another two-leaf timber door. The remaining bays display regular fenestration at ground and basement levels, with the blocking course rising to form four semi-circular openings to the right. The building has modern windows and Dutch canopies, topped with a grey slate piend roof.

Inside, the hall has been altered to accommodate a nightclub, resulting in a compartmental ceiling.
