48 Wellgate, Lanark

44-46 Wellgate in Lanark is an earlier 19th-century building that stands two storeys high and features five bays. The structure is made of painted coursed rubble, with painted quoins and raised margins. The central bay slightly projects and includes pilaster panels and a segmental arch leading to a wide pend. There are shop fronts on either side, each with central pilastered doors and cornices above, although the door for No. 44 is now obscured by a modern fascia. No. 50 is narrower and has an additional pilaster to the left of its window. The building has a cill course and five windows on the first floor, some of which retain their original lying-pane glazing. The central bay features a wallhead stack that rises from a corniced parapet, flanked by scrolled brackets. The roof is slate, and there are two rounded stair towers at the rear.
