10 Shorehead is a Category C listed building in Portsoy, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Dating to 1726, it stands in Shorehead, in the southwestern corner of Portsoy harbour. The harbour itself is also Category A listed, dating to 1692. The building's former warehouse, located adjacent to the east, is also Category C listed. It dates to the late 18th century.
The building is three storeys with an attic in an L-plan range. It has harled ashlar margins. There is an entrance to the attic in the southern gable of the wing reach from Barbank Street. A skewputt on the northeastern side of the building is dated 1727.
Historic Scotland assessed the building in a group containing the adjacent Corf Warehouse, Old Co-Operative Grain Store and the harbour.
The warehouse was one of six buildings in the harbour owned by Tom Burnett-Stuart. When he died, in January 2020, he left the buildings in the care of North East Scotland Preservation Trust (NESPT).
