24, 26 Upperkirkgate, Aberdeen

24 and 26 Upperkirkgate in Aberdeen is a 3-storey, 3-bay townhouse dated 1694. The building features harled sandstone with finely tooled sandstone ashlar dressings on the first and second floors. It has large corbelled skewputts with sundials, likely from an earlier structure, and the fenestration is slightly offset above the entrance. The ground floor has a later shop frontage.

At the upper levels, there are 12-pane timber sash and case windows, and the roof is covered with grey slate. A broad harled ridge stack is located against the right gable-end of the adjoining building, along with clay cans and cast iron rainwater goods.

Inside, there is some 18th century pine panelling on the east wall of the ground floor, likely moved from the main first floor apartments. An exposed rubble arch, which is now blocked, probably formed part of a fireplace. The double attic space has early timber beams with signs of an earlier hoist system, including iron hooks attached to the beams at regular intervals. Additionally, there is a central well beneath the shop floor.
