1 Lynedoch Place, Edinburgh

1 Lynedoch Place in Edinburgh is a three-storey, ten-bay Italianate tenement and shops designed by John Watherston and Sons, built between 1876 and 1877. The building features a splayed corner and a single-storey corniced block on the far left of the south elevation, which includes a doorway and a window. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar, with painted ashlar shopfronts on the south elevation. The east elevation has a segmental arched tenement doorway flanked by shop windows.

The building is accentuated by full-height pilasters at the corners, which are channelled on the first and second floors. Large single console brackets are present at the corner splay, supporting a guilloched balcony above. The first floor features a consoled pediment above tripartite windows, and there is a moulded cill course at both the first and second floors, along with a prominent consoled corniced eaves course. The first-floor windows are corniced and consoled, while the second-floor windows have moulded architraves.

The rear elevation is made of coursed rubble with some ashlar rybats, cills, and lintels, and it has irregular fenestration. The ground floor shop fronts predominantly feature plate glass, with some in timber and others in metal surrounds. The tenement windows are mainly plate glass in timber sash and case, with some 12-pane timber sash and case windows at the rear. The roof is a shallow double pitch M-section covered with grey slates, and there are corniced ashlar and rendered ridge and gable end stacks with modern clay cans. The rear also features cast-iron rainwater goods.
