Description

7, 8, 9 East Norton Place in Edinburgh is a group of four plain classical tenement buildings dating from around 1860. These four-storey structures feature a total of 14 bays and include shops on the ground floor. They are constructed from droved sandstone and have a band course at the ground and first floors, as well as a cill course at the third floor. The buildings exhibit regular fenestration, with modern shop fronts on the outer left and right sides.

The older shop fronts have recessed glazed doors and flank a central pedimented timber boarded door with a plate glass fanlight to the left. The Post Office occupies the centre-right position, showcasing polished granite facing on the cills and architrave door frames, with two timber panelled doors on either side of three large border-glazed windows. The glazing is predominantly non-traditional, with some plate glass in timber sash and case windows. The buildings also feature coped stacks and some circular clay cans.
