Description
14 Forth Street in Edinburgh is a pair of terraced houses designed by Robert Burn in 1800. These two-storey buildings feature an attic and a basement, and they are constructed from sandstone ashlar. The exterior includes a cill band at the ground level, a band course between the floors, an eaves cornice, and a blocking course. The doorways are pilastered and corniced, with entrance platts that oversail the basement.
On the principal elevation, there are broad timber panelled doors with round-arched fanlights in the center bays. Above these doors, single windows are located, flanked by stone-mullioned tripartite windows on each floor. The attic features piended and canted tripartite dormers.
The windows are timber sash and case, predominantly with plate glass glazing, including a 12-pane window on the first floor of No 16. The roofs are covered with grey slates, and there are gable head stacks. Decorative cast-iron railings complete the exterior.
The interior was not seen in 1998.
