Description

27, 28, 29 Warrender Park Terrace is a five-storey, four-bay tenement building designed by George Wilson in 1880. It features a symmetrical design above ground and incorporates details reminiscent of Scottish 17th century architecture. The building is constructed from squared and snecked sandstone, accented with polished ashlar dressings. Notable architectural elements include a base course, a cill course at the first floor, a corbel table, and a string course at the fourth-floor windows that break the eaves. The windows have raised surrounds, architraved tripartite designs, chamfered reveals, and there are panelled doors with border-glazed fanlights.

On the entrance elevation, there are two roll-moulded doorways with a linking pediment in the second bay, with single windows above. The fourth-floor window features a semi-circular pediment and a stone finial. In the third bay, there is a roll-moulded doorway with a single window flanking to the left, and again a semi-circular pedimented dormerhead above. The outer left and right bays have advanced bipartite windows at ground level, leading to full-height advanced tripartite windows above. Square fielded panels are positioned above the first-floor windows, with shaped cill details at the fourth floor, and dividing cill and string courses. The building is topped with Dutch gables that include oculi. A corbelled chimney-breast features an inset ciphered panel dated 1882 between the second and third bays. The windows are plate glass sash and case, and the roof is made of grey slate, with a corniced wallhead stack featuring gabletted returns and coped mutual stacks. The interiors were not seen in 1991. The boundary includes coping with replacement fencing along the street.
