3 Riverside, Cramond, Edinburgh

2 Riverside in Cramond, Edinburgh, is a building dating from around 1795 that was recast and converted by Ian Lindsay & Partners between 1959 and 1961, with a basement conversion taking place around 1994. It consists of three plain vernacular two-storey and basement, three-bay tenements that form a terrace. The building has a rectangular plan and is accessed from both the front and rear, featuring a symmetrical arrangement of openings. The exterior is finished in whitewashed harl with painted surrounds to the openings, a continuous eaves course, and timber rails on the first-floor platforms at the front.

On the east elevation, which serves as the entrance for numbers 10 to 15, there are three two-storey, five-bay blocks with flats on the ground and first floors. A rubble-coped harled wall at the front forms the boundary of the passage. The central bays feature single boarded timber doors at ground level, with single windows flanking them in the remaining bays on both sides. The first-floor platforms, which are timber railed, lead to the first-floor entries, where there are single boarded doors and single windows in the adjacent bays. The outer windows have painted surrounds, while the windows flanking the entry have plain surrounds with projecting cills.

The west elevation, which serves as the entrance for numbers 1 to 3 Riverside, features single boarded timber doors at ground level in the penultimate bays on the left and right (numbers 1 and 3), and a two-leaf timber door set in a central segmental arch for number 2. Single windows flank the entries at ground level, and the first and second floors are regularly fenestrated across all bays.

Both elevations are adorned with 12-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is made of machine-made red pantiles with a grey slate easing course and raised skews. Harled apex stacks are located at the north and south ends, with ridge stacks evenly distributed between the properties, featuring precast concrete coping and circular cans.

The interiors were not seen in 1996.
