24 High Street, Montrose

24 High Street in Montrose is a three-storey, four-bay tenement building dating from around 1800. It is part of an irregular terrace, featuring a shop at the ground level. The front of the building has a lined render finish, while the rear is harled, with plain margins.

The east elevation, which is the principal facade, includes a 19th-century shopfront on the right side at ground level. There is a central recessed door flanked by plate glass windows, with a pend to the left. The bays are framed by attached cast-iron columns that have decorative floreate capitals. Above the door and pend, there is a moulded panel displaying the building number. The pend features a decorative steel gate, and there is a panelled door that opens to the right beyond the pend. The first and second floors have regular fenestration.

The north elevation is adjacent to 20 High Street, while the south elevation is next to 28 High Street. The west elevation has a stone forestair on the left side, which is partially enclosed and leads to a doorway at the first pend on the right. This doorway has double shutter-type doors, and there is a single bay above the pend, with windows on the first and second floors.

The interior was not seen in 1997. The east elevation features plate glass and timber sash and case windows. The roof on the east pitch is covered with grey slates, while the west pitch has brown machine tiles. There are tall and broad brick stacks on the party walls to the north and south, along with cast-iron rainwater goods and decorative cast-iron brackets. A 19th-century rooflight is also present.
