Description

32 New Bridge Street in Ayr is an early 19th century, three-storey, three-bay tenement building that includes commercial premises on the ground floor. The exterior is finished in painted ashlar and features a corniced shopfront, a cill course on the second floor, an eaves course, a cornice, and a blocking course. The window openings have architraved margins, and there are aprons at the first floor.

On the southeast elevation, there is a central entrance to the shopfront on the left, which consists of a recessed two-leaf glazed timber door with a letterbox fanlight and flanking shop windows. The entrance to No 28 is accessed via a close to the outer right. The upper floors have regular fenestration.

The ground floor has shop windows, while the upper floors feature eight-pane timber sash and case windows, with four-pane upper sashes only at the first floor. The roof is covered with grey slate and includes rooflights, coped gablehead stacks, and circular cans. The interior was not seen in 1998.
