B-Group with former Hays & Goldberg's Warehouse. Originally Strand Street was the most important thoroughfare in Kilmarnock. It was the first street to be paved and was a popular residential area for merchants. The living conditions were not ideal, with the houses being small. The area was redeveloped in the late 19th century, when the expansion of John Finnie Street was at its peak. The proliference of 3-storey business premises continued into Strand Street. Adjacent to this property are the whisky bonds (Gabriel Andrew, 1897) built for Johnny Walker. Later known as the Hays & Goldberg warehouse, they too have been converted into retail premises. These buildings share similarities and appear to have been built to compliment each other. The overhanging cornice projects at the same height and distance as the 2nd floor cill course of the bond. The windows of both 1st floors have blind lower portions and pilasters separating the bays. It is influenced by James Ingram's former Operetta House in John Finnie Street.
