Summary

Description

18th century, possibly including earlier fabric; later alterations including attic dormers and conversion of outbuildings to separate residential dwelling. 3-storey, roughly 4-bay, shallow rectangular-plan tenement. Rendered with plain margins. Band course between 1st and 2nd floors. Roughly regular fenestration with later enlarged openings to left at E elevation; bipartite window breaking wallhead to centre of W elevation. Later rectangular dormers at attic with tile hung cheeks.

Predominantly 8-pane glazing in timber sash and case windows; some plate glass to outbuilding. Pitched roof, black slates; coped rendered gable end stacks with octagonal clay cans. Cast-iron rainwater goods.

Statement of Special Interest

A well-detailed early tenement building, near the site of the former Dean Tannery. Some fabric may date from the 17th century. The area housed a chemical works during the early 19th century, so the building may have provided accommodation for workers or offices during this period and also provided the same function to the former Dean tannery. The building has undergone several phases of alteration, and was in use as a shop during the late 19th and 20th century, with a shop front in the S gable wall. The former outbuilding to the E was converted to form a separate residential dwelling in the late 20th or early 21st century.

About Listed Buildings

Historic Environment Scotland is responsible for designating sites and places at the national level. These designations are Scheduled monuments, Listed buildings, Inventory of gardens and designed landscapes and Inventory of historic battlefields.

We make recommendations to the Scottish Government about historic marine protected areas, and the Scottish Ministers decide whether to designate.

Listing is the process that identifies, designates and provides statutory protection for buildings of special architectural or historic interest as set out in the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997.

We list buildings which are found to be of special architectural or historic interest using the selection guidance published in Designation Policy and Selection Guidance (2019)

Listed building records provide an indication of the special architectural or historic interest of the listed building which has been identified by its statutory address. The description and additional information provided are supplementary and have no legal weight.

These records are not definitive historical accounts or a complete description of the building(s). If part of a building is not described it does not mean it is not listed. The format of the listed building record has changed over time. Earlier records may be brief and some information will not have been recorded.

The legal part of the listing is the address/name of site which is known as the statutory address. Other than the name or address of a listed building, further details are provided for information purposes only. Historic Environment Scotland does not accept any liability for any loss or damage suffered as a consequence of inaccuracies in the information provided. Addresses and building names may have changed since the date of listing. Even if a number or name is missing from a listing address it will still be listed. Listing covers both the exterior and the interior and any object or structure fixed to the building. Listing also applies to buildings or structures not physically attached but which are part of the curtilage (or land) of the listed building as long as they were erected before 1 July 1948.

While Historic Environment Scotland is responsible for designating listed buildings, the planning authority is responsible for determining what is covered by the listing, including what is listed through curtilage. However, for listed buildings designated or for listings amended from 1 October 2015, legal exclusions to the listing may apply.

If part of a building is not listed, it will say that it is excluded in the statutory address and in the statement of special interest in the listed building record. The statement will use the word 'excluding' and quote the relevant section of the 1997 Act. Some earlier listed building records may use the word 'excluding', but if the Act is not quoted, the record has not been revised to reflect subsequent legislation.

Listed building consent is required for changes to a listed building which affect its character as a building of special architectural or historic interest. The relevant planning authority is the point of contact for applications for listed building consent.
