Description
330 Lawnmarket in Edinburgh is a five-storey, three-bay gabled Scots Baronial tenement built in 1883 by Thomas P Marwick. The building features squared and snecked bull-faced sandstone with polished dressings, although the ground floor is painted. It has a base course and a dentilled cornice above the shop. Notable architectural details include chequer-set machicolation and a moulded string course that steps over cannon-spouts between the third and fourth floors, as well as a shaped, gabletted crowstepped gable.
The ground floor has paired banded colonnettes between the openings, with windows framed in roll-moulded and tabbed surrounds. There are shaped panels beneath the second and fourth floor windows. The entrance features a timber panelled two-leaf glazed door in the left bay, topped by a scrolled broken pediment that encloses a broken pedimented aedicule with the initials RE. The centre fourth floor window also has a scrolled broken pediment, and there is a keyblocked oculus in the gable.
The upper sashes of the windows have six panes of glazing, while the lower sashes have two panes, all in timber sash and case style.
