Description
19 Bridgefield, dating from the mid to later 19th century and extended in the 1920s by Thomson Joiners, is a single-storey building with a raised basement. It features a rectangular plan and a piend roof, serving as a shop and workshop, alongside a single-storey and attic office. The building is located adjacent to the Carron Water and incorporates a milestone with a re-cut keystone from the 1781 bridge. The construction includes snecked roughly coursed rubble with large stugged red sandstone quoins, red brick on the random rubble basement to the north, and timber on the south and west sides.
The entrance elevation has single-storey bays to the right of the centre, featuring a broad multi-pane bipartite window that was converted from a door at the centre, with windows abutting the eaves in the flanking bays. The window to the right is positioned over the milestone and an inscribed stone set in a niche at the outer right. To the left of the centre, there are two-storey bays with a part-glazed boarded timber door and a 6-pane fanlight to the right at ground level, a small window immediately to the left, and a broad pend opening with a two-leaf boarded timber door beyond. Above, there are two canted dormer windows with modillioned cornices in the mansard roof.
On the north elevation facing the Carron Water, the ground floor features five regularly spaced tripartite windows, with a timber display board to the outer left and a later bay to the outer right. The basement has small horizontal openings. The windows have fixed multi-pane glazing patterns and plate glass glazing in the dormer windows, all within original timber frames. The roof is covered with grey slates and includes traditional vertical rooflights for the workshop. A coped brick wallhead stack with a can is also present.
Inside, the vestibule has part-glazed timber doors, one of which is etched with the word 'OFFICE', along with some multi-pane top lights. The shop, which was formerly a joiner's workshop, is timber-lined, featuring original nail boxes and cupboards along the south wall, with roof timbers made of Oregon pine. The wall leading to the staircase is also timber-lined.
The milestone and bridge pier include a commemorative stone inscribed with 'THEOBALD BARCLAY 1150' and 'MATHERS 1351 URIE', which has been re-cut and set into the wall below the milestone, which is marked with 'BERVIE 10 / L14 / A14'. There is a square-section, coped, channelled ashlar pier from the former bridge at the northeast angle.
