Description
14, 15, 16 Buccleuch Place is a four-storey tenement building with a dormered attic and basement, constructed between 1783 and 1785. It features a symmetrical seven-bay façade, with the central three bays slightly projecting. The building is made from ashlar sandstone, with long and short quoined corners, while the rear elevation is built from rubble sandstone. The centre bay has blind windows. The entrance doors of Nos 14 and 16 are adorned with Roman Doric pilastered and corniced doorpieces, and there are entrance platts that extend over the basement. At the rear, there is an advanced gabled wing that was formerly the George Square Assembly Rooms, which were converted into housing in 2015. The rear elevation also includes some decorative cast iron window boxes.
The windows are mainly 12-pane glazing set in sash and case timber frames. The roofs are covered with grey slates, and there are wide, corniced ridge and gable stacks topped with cylindrical cans. The property is enclosed by low coped walls with cast iron railings.
