Description

Curly's Public House, located at 16 Raploch Street in Larkhall, is a late 19th-century, two-storey, three-bay end of terrace public house that has undergone later refurbishment. The building features a corner bay with channelled pilasters at the first floor and a carved corner panel above. It is constructed of painted sandstone ashlar, with wet dash to the sides and painted dressings. Architectural details include a base course, a cornice between the ground and first floors, an eaves course, and a cornice. The first-floor windows have raised margins and roll mouldings.

On the southeast elevation facing Raploch Street, there is a bracketed stone canopy with a blocking course and a decorative wrought-iron balustrade over an architraved doorway located in the central bay. The doorway has a replaced timber door with a blocked fanlight above, and there is a window at the first floor above it. To the left, there is a window on each floor, while to the right, there is a window at the ground level with a block to the lower half and a window at the first floor above. The corner bay features a replacement timber surround to the doorway, with applied 'CURLY'S' lettering on the frieze above, a bipartite window at the first floor, and scrolled brackets with ball-finialled pilasters flanking a carved 'CROSSGATE' panel, which has a cornice and a carved round-arched initial panel above.

The northeast elevation facing Crossgates Street is a blank wall with a tall wallhead stack at the center. The building has two-pane timber sash and case windows, as well as fixed picture windows at the ground level. The roof is a grey slate piended design, with an ashlar coped stack on the northeast side and cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior has been modernly refurbished.
