Description

10, 12, and 14 St Vincent Street in Edinburgh is an early 19th-century terraced tenement designed by Robert Reid and William Sibbald. The building features four storeys and a basement, with a seven-bay facade constructed of polished ashlar sandstone. The principal floor showcases channelled rustication, a base course, and band courses separating the basement from the principal floor and the principal from the first floor. There are blank aprons in the bays at the first floor, a cill course at the third floor, and projecting cills in the bays on the left and right at the second floor. The third floor is capped with a cornice and a blocking course.

The west (principal) elevation has a centrally located four-panel timber common stair door at the principal floor, flanked by two additional four-panel timber doors, all featuring plate glass rectangular fanlights. The remaining bays on the principal floor and the floors above have regular fenestration. The north (Cumberland Street) elevation also displays regular fenestration across all floors, with blind windows in the outer right and penultimate bays.

The building is predominantly fitted with 12-pane timber sash and case windows, topped by a grey slate roof. It includes cast-iron rainwater goods and polished ashlar ridge stacks, as well as a shouldered wallhead stack and a rubble wallhead stack with polished ashlar quoins, all coped and featuring circular cans.

The interiors were not seen in 1997, but there is some evidence of working panelled shutters. The property is adorned with ashlar copes topped by cast-iron railings featuring fleur-de-lis balusters and pineapple finials, along with cast-iron lamps mounted on the railings that have glass globes.
