34-36 Ferryhill Place, Aberdeen

34-36 Ferryhill Place is a possibly J MacKay-designed terrace from the later 19th century, featuring five bays and comprising two-storey and attic houses with two-bay and three-bay configurations. The exterior is made of coursed, tooled granite that is finely finished at the margins. Notable architectural elements include a base course, projecting cills, pilastered doorways that are corniced and consoled, predominantly panelled timber doors with letterbox fanlights, an eaves course, and canted dormers.

On the south elevation, No 32 is a two-bay house with a doorway to the left on the ground floor, a window above, and a canted window that spans the ground and first floors of the bay to the right, which breaks the eaves with a piended roof and features skylights in the attic. Nos 34-36 present an asymmetrical three-bay design with a central doorway, a window above on the first floor, and regular fenestration in the flanking bay to the right. The outer left angle has a canted tower with windows on three sides at both the ground and first floors, and three round-arched timber windows in the attic floor set within a truncated platform spire adorned with decorative ironwork brattishing.

The east elevation is obscured by an adjoining terrace. The north elevation is asymmetrical, showcasing a variety of door and window patterns, including dormers and skylights in the attic. The west elevation is also asymmetrical and consists of two bays, with a doorway to No 36 on the right, flanked by a window on the left. The first floor features regular fenestration, and the attic has a dormer on the left and a skylight on the right, with a canted tower adjoining the outer right side.

The buildings predominantly feature four-pane timber sash and case windows, a grey slate roof with a lead ridge, coped stone skews with blocked skewputts, and coped granite gablehead and ridge stacks with circular and octagonal cans. The rainwater goods are made of cast iron.

The interiors were not seen in 1999. The property is enclosed by low coped granite walls to the south and west, which include square-plan gatepiers with pyramidal caps, ironwork railings, and gates. To the north, there are brick and granite coped rubble boundary walls.
