Description

6 Westfield Terrace in Aberdeen is a two-storey and attic double villa designed by James Henderson in 1874. It features a symmetrical, six-bay façade with Scots Baronial and Dutch-inspired detailing. The building is constructed from Aberdeen bond granite rubble, with cement-faced dressings, and includes a rough-faced grey granite base course, chamfered reveals, raised margins, and long and short quoins. The first-floor gableted windows break the eaves and feature a blind shield set in the gablehead, along with curvilinear gables and gablets.

The southeast elevation is symmetrical, with tripartite windows in the center two bays of the ground floor, which have round-arched timber upper sashes. Each villa has a doorway in the center bay at ground level, which is deeply chamfered and features a blind shield at the keystone, accessed by stone steps. The doors are two-leaf panelled timber with glazed upper panels for No 8, and there is a fanlight above. The first floor has regular fenestration. The gabled bays are advanced to the outer left and right, with canted windows on both the ground and first floors. There is a narrow round-arched window set in the gablehead of No 8, while No 6 has this area infilled.

The northeast elevation features a curvilinear-gabled bay to the left, with a window in the center and a round-arched blind opening above. The northwest elevation was not visible in 2000, and the southwest elevation has a curvilinear-gabled bay to the right, with the remainder also not seen in 2000.

The building predominantly has four-pane timber sash and case windows, a grey slate roof with a lead ridge, and coped skews with decorative skewputts. The gablehead and ridge stacks are coped and have predominantly octagonal cans, along with cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interiors were not seen in 2000. The boundary walls and gates consist of low coped ashlar walls to the southeast, featuring decorative iron gates, while the remainder has rubble coped walls.
