Scope and Content View of Appin Post Office from the west, Argyll and Bute Appin Post Office dates to the late 18th or early 19th century. It is a plain two-storeyed building which is oblong in shape. It has a hipped, or piended, roof which is slated, with chimneyed gables. The post office has been built with rubble masonry which has been limewashed. The windows are widely spaced and some of them still have their original glazing bars. The building has been renovated internally and there are no original features left. To the right is a single-storeyed cottage, formerly a byre, and, next to that another single-storeyed house. They both have corrugated metal roofs and are built from limewashed rubble. They both date to the same period as the post office. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
