Statement of Interest

Although semi-derelict (2003), this building retains good vernacular characteristics. Its proportions are subtle with the ground floor windows slightly wider than those above; the windows have no margins. The modern cement harl on the facade has replaced a traditional lime harl or lime wash. The position of the building on Whitehall, near the centre of the historic burgh of Maybole, is prominent and the building contributes much by delineating the streetscape due to its immediate proximity to the road.
