Originally a general store known by the name Glasgow House built by George Robertson in 1896 which sold a wide variety of merchandise including Christmas cards, toys, ribbons and lace, gloves, corsets, dress making fabric, men and boys clothing, shirts and tweed trousers. Robertson also had a stonemason's yard at the rear of the site and employed Irish stone carver John Charles O'Kelly who crafted the building's ornate allegorical stonework. The work of this firm of monumental masons may also be seen in many local cemeteries.
The premises features a sandstone facade with carvings of figures over the entrance representing trade and industry which are still in good repair today.
The sides of the building have stone pillars with ivy leaves carved within.
