23-27 Haddington Place, Leith Walk, Edinburgh

18-22 Haddington Place is a classical tenement building located in Leith Walk, Edinburgh, designed by Robert Brown in 1825. This four-storey and basement structure features an 18-bay terraced design with shops on the ground floor, constructed from sandstone ashlar. The building has an entablature that serves as a fascia band, with moulded pilastraded architraves and cornices adorning the first-floor windows. Decorative balconies span the first floor, except over the fifth and fourteenth entrance bays. There is a cill band and moulded architraves at the second floor, a cornice course between the third and fourth floors, and an eaves cornice with a blocking course. The entrance is accessed via ashlar steps and entrance plats that oversail the basement.

On the principal elevation facing southeast, there are entrances with fanlights in the second, third, fifth, seventh, eighth, twelfth, fourteenth, and sixteenth bays. Timber panelled doors are located in the fifth, seventh, eighth, and fourteenth bays, while two-leaf doors are found in the twelfth and sixteenth bays. Fluted Ionic columned doorpieces are present in the fifth and fourteenth bays (Nos 20 and 25), with shop windows featuring plate glass and multi-pane designs in the remaining bays. The fenestration above is regular, with tall windows on the first floor that decrease in size towards the wallhead attic.

To the rear northwest of Haddington Place, there is a two-storey mews on Annandale Street Lane (Nos 26 and 28 Annandale Street Lane), which has largely altered carriage entrances at ground level with timber lintels, and a hay loft with brick-blocked openings.

The building features timber sash and case windows with 12-pane glazing, and 15-pane glazing on the first floor. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are ridge and gablehead stacks with terracotta cans, along with ornamental cast-iron railings. The interior was not seen in 1998.
