Description
14 Exchange Street in Aberdeen is a large commercial building from the later 19th century, featuring three stories and an attic. It has a Scots Baronial style with four and five bays, and it stands at the corner of Exchange Street, Imperial Place, and Stirling Street. The building is characterized by corner turrets and crow-stepped gables on the south side. It is constructed from tooled, coursed granite with ashlar dressings and band courses, while the ground floor is entirely ashlar. The street-facing elevations have segmental-arched openings, including two deep cavetto-moulded shouldered openings on Imperial Place, one of which is a doorway. The roof has later 20th-century box dormers and a mansard design.
The windows are predominantly timber 4-pane sash and case, and the roof is covered with grey slate. The turrets feature candle snuffer roofs adorned with decorative fish scale slates.
The interior was not visited during the last survey in 2006, but it is believed to have been substantially altered since its original construction.
