Description
9 High Shore in Banff is a building from the mid-18th century, with an advanced wing likely added around 1790. It has an L-shaped plan, featuring a narrow gable facing the street and a wide elevation towards the garden on the west side. The exterior is harled with painted ashlar margins, some of which are chamfered. There is a doorway located in the re-entrant angle and another in the center of the south elevation of the front wing. A later 19th-century canted oriel window is positioned at the center of the first-floor street gable, above a canted greenhouse.
The garden elevation on the west side is two stories high and has five bays, with a central entrance on the first floor accessed by a cast-iron forestair featuring a decorative balustrade. The glazing is varied, including plate glass, as well as 4-pane and 12-pane timber sash and case windows.
The building has flat skews with run-off skewputts, slate roofs, and 19th-century coped end rubble stacks. A garage has been added to the ground floor to the left of the re-entrant doorway.
The garden walls, dating from around 1790, are high rubble walls that enclose the rear garden.
