Description
13 and 14 Gladstone Place is a four-storey, three-bay tenement building, dated 1880 and built for John Blackie. The front is made of polished ashlar sandstone, with a channelled ground floor, while the end gable and rear are constructed from squared and snecked rubble. The building features a base course, a band course between the ground and first floors, and moulded and bracketed cill courses for the windows on the first, second, and third floors. There is an eaves cornice and a blocking course, with consoles supporting urns at the outer corners. The openings on the first and second floors are architraved, with corniced windows on the first floor and a canted bay on the second floor.
On the principal elevation, the entrance doors are located to the right of the first and third bays, featuring panelled doors with rectangular plate glass fanlights and consoled cornice doorpieces. There are single openings in the first and third bays, and a full-height canted bay in the centre, flanked by bipartite windows above the ground floor.
The east elevation is a gable wall with an ashlar band course and cill courses for the openings on the first, second, and third floors, each with a single central opening. The south elevation has not been seen since 1995.
The building has plate glass timber sash and case windows throughout. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a piended design, with corniced wallhead multi-flue stacks.
The boundary wall consists of an ashlar dwarf wall with modern railings.
