Description

222 Westburn Road in Aberdeen is an early 20th-century building, possibly designed by Arthur Clyne. It consists of a pair of two-storey and attic semi-detached houses, each with four bays and a mirrored layout. The exterior is made of rough-faced coursed grey granite, which is finely finished at the margins. Notable features include finely finished granite cill courses, a dark grey granite dividing band course, and an eaves course.

The south elevation is symmetrical, featuring a pair of chamfered doorways with stepped hoodmoulds at the center of the two bays on the ground floor. These doorways are flanked by pilastered panelled timber doors with stained-glass panels and large fanlights, with stained glass present in No 224. Above, there are two windows on the first floor, and the flanking bays to the left and right have three-light canted windows on both the ground and first floors. The eaves of the piended roofs are adorned with dentil mouldings and decorative ironwork spires, and there are regularly placed two-pane skylights in the attic.

The east elevation is gabled and blank, while the north elevation was not visible in 1999. The west elevation is also gabled and features a pointed-arched bipartite window with a twin hoodmould at the center of the first floor. Most windows, except for those on the ground floor of No 222, have been replaced with two-pane PVCu windows, while No 222 retains two-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with purple-grey slate and has a lead ridge, with coped granite skews and scrolled skewputts. The gablehead stacks are also coped granite with octagonal cans, and cast-iron rainwater goods are present.

The interior was not seen in 1999. Surrounding the property are low granite boundary walls to the south and west, topped by decorative iron railings on the west with stylised paterae caps, and a rubble wall to the east with pointed coping.
