Description
30-32 Huntly Street in Canonmills, Edinburgh, is a four-storey corner tenement built in 1863, designed in the Scottish Baronial style, with a shop on the ground floor facing Canonmills. The building is constructed of coursed bull-faced sandstone, accented with polished cream ashlar dressings. It features stop-chamfered reveals around its openings, with third-floor windows that break the eaves and crowstepped gables.
On the west elevation facing Warriston Road, the ground floor has six bays. There is a doorway in the fourth bay with a panelled door and a plate glass fanlight, while the second bay has a blocked doorway. The remaining bays contain windows. Above the ground floor, there are single windows in each of the three bays, with a pediment and thistle finial above the first bay's third-floor window. The second and third bays are gabled, with a corbel table over the second floor, featuring a stepped design between the bays and an "AR" cipher panel. A corbelled gablehead stack is located between the bays, and there is a two-stage corbelled turret that clasps the right angle of the building, topped with a fishscale pepperpot roof and a decorative cruciform iron finial.
The south elevation facing Canonmills has a modern shopfront at ground level, with two bays above. Each bay features a single window on every floor, and there is a string course above the second-floor windows, along with finialled moulded pediments over the third-floor windows.
The northeast rear elevation is not visible as of 1992. The east gable is rendered, while the north gable has brick-blocked openings and is rendered above the first floor.
The building has four-pane sash and case windows, with three first-floor windows replaced with uPVC. The roof is covered with grey slate, featuring rendered and coped gablehead stacks and scroll skewputts.
