127-129 High Street, Edinburgh

127-129 High Street in Edinburgh is a public house built in 1813 by Thomas Bonnar, which incorporates earlier structures at the rear. This two-storey, three-bay building is part of a five-storey, seven-bay tenement that was reduced in height around 1970. The early 20th-century timber pub front features a segmental-arched pend to the right, leading to North Gray's Close, and another pend to the left, leading to Bishop's Close. The first floor is finished in painted ashlar.

On the south elevation facing High Street, there is a two-leaf timber storm door with a segmental-arched fanlight above it, flanked by segmental-arched windows. Timber fluted pilasters separate the bays, and there is a consoled and dentilled cornice above, topped with a swept broken pediment. The first floor has three windows with cills that have been lowered below the cill course.

The east elevation, which faces North Gray's Close, is built of random rubble with ashlar margins around single and bipartite windows. The west elevation, facing Bishop's Close, retains some early stonework and has a blocked doorway that may date back to the 17th century. There is an off-centre segmental archway that closes Bishop's Close, with a pend leading to the rear of the tenement.

The first-floor windows are plate glass timber sash and case, while the public house features plate glass. The modern roof is concealed behind a continuous timber fascia. Inside, the pub has a reproduction interior.
