The building's architect was Lochgilphead native William Fraser, who was asked to design an extension to an earlier infants' school building (designed in 1880 by Robert Alexander Bryden and which burned down in 1958). 1907 additions were done by Boston, Menzies and Morton. The gymnasium wing was added by Robert Cameron in 1934.
