Description
201 Gilmore Place in Edinburgh is a pair of semi-detached houses built around 1872. These single-storey and attic homes feature a yellow sandstone façade with stugged ashlar front and polished grey sandstone dressings and quoins. The rear and sides are constructed from squared and snecked stugged rubble. Notable architectural details include a base course, stop-chamfered reveals, and stylized triangular-headed openings. The eaves are supported by ornamental cast-iron brackets, although the bracket on No 203 is missing. The windows have ashlar mullions, and the attic features bipartite windows that break the eaves, topped with finialled half-piend roofs, with the finial on No 201 also missing.
The front elevation is symmetrical, with each house having a central entrance door flanked by strip pilasters and topped with a projecting cornice over carved corbels. The doors are panelled, and each has a triangular-headed fanlight and a tiled vestibule, with a small triangular roof vent above. The outer bay has a canted window with a half-piend roof on the ground floor, with an attic window above it. The central bay features an advanced bipartite window at ground level, with an attic window above.
The northeast and southwest elevations are blank gables with corniced apex stacks. The rear elevation includes a single-storey extension with a half-piend roof and two box dormers, each with half-piend roofs. The windows are timber sash and case, featuring triangular-headed upper sashes and plate glass glazing. The roof is slate with lead flashings, and there are roll-moulded copings to the skews, along with incised skewputts and moulded eaves gutters, which have ornamental cast-iron gutter heads.
Surrounding the property is a tall rubble wall with semi-circular coping at the rear and sides, and a low rubble wall with saddleback coping at the front. The interior was not seen in 1992.
