Description
16 Hill Street in Edinburgh is a pair of mirrored, three-storey and attic classical houses built between 1788 and 1794 by James Hill. The buildings are constructed from droved cream ashlar sandstone with polished dressings and have been stone cleaned. The front features smaller windows with a cill course at the ground level and an eaves course. The inner bays have broad tripartite architraved doorpieces adorned with a fluted frieze and a mutule cornice, leading to flush-panelled doors. The outer bays are topped with piend-roofed tripartite dormers.
The rear elevations are made of rubble and consist of two storeys and two bays, featuring tripartite windows in the outer bays at ground level and stair windows in the centre. There are three large dormers at the rear.
The windows are timber sash and case with 12 panes. The building has ashlar coped skews, stone stacks, and is covered with grey slates. The interior was not seen in 1995.
