Description

31 and 33 Waverley Bridge in Edinburgh is a building designed by Robert Moreham, constructed between 1877 and 1890. It may have involved the rebuilding of an 1868 station building by James Bell to create a railway agents office. The building features an early 20th-century glazed corner shopfront and has undergone later internal alterations.

On the north elevation, which faces the railway at street level, there is a three-bay ashlar façade with round-headed windows that have set-back margins, moulded heads, and a string course. The windows have Georgian glazing with narrow astragals. Above, there is a modillioned cornice with a guilloche frieze. A single bay extension includes a blind window that mirrors the stone windows as part of a timber extension on the west and south elevations. The building has two basement levels with squared rubble and round-headed windows.

The west and south elevations feature a wooden and glazed shopfront façade. All windows are basket-arched, with plain separating pilasters on the west elevation and part fluted, part panelled pilasters on the south elevation. A frieze with a dentil cornice runs along the top.

Additionally, there is stanchion and tube railing at the edge of the original masonry roof. The interior was extensively altered in 2013-14.
