6, 8, 10 Barony Street, Edinburgh

6, 8, 10 Barony Street is a terraced tenement building designed by Thomas Bonnar in the early 19th century. It is predominantly three storeys with an attic, and four storeys at Nos 18-22, where the fourth storey functions as a wallhead attic. The building features 18 bays, with 20 bays at the ground floor, and has a sweeping design towards the left. The exterior is constructed from broached ashlar sandstone, with polished ashlar sandstone at the ground floor. Notable architectural elements include a base course, a band course between the ground and first floors that sweeps up between Nos 10 and 12, and between Nos 16 and 18. There is a cornice and blocking course at the second floor, which sweeps up between Nos 10 and 12 and continues as a cornice at Nos 18-22. The third floor at Nos 18-22 also has a cornice and blocking course. The ground and first floors feature panelled aprons, and there are projecting cills at the second floor.

On the south elevation, there is an irregular arrangement of four-panel timber doors with plate glass rectangular fanlights, with an eight-pane door at No 14 that has grills at the top of the upper panels. The remaining bays at the ground floor have windows, while the floors above have regular fenestration. The east elevation adjoins another terrace, which is listed separately (42-48, 48A Broughton Street).

The west elevation, facing Barony Place, has a single bay with a stugged and squared gable that becomes 2 Barony Place. It features a modern four-panel timber door with a radial rectangular fanlight at the principal floor, with windows centered above. To the left, there is a coped random rubble wall with a timber door in a pedestrian gate on the right, and a modern garage to the outer left.

The building predominantly has two-pane timber sash and case windows and a grey slate M-roof. There are pairs of piended and bow-fronted dormers for Nos 6-16, with slate-hung dormers for Nos 12-16. The rainwater goods are made of cast iron, and there are rendered and broached ashlar ridge stacks that are corniced with circular cans, along with coped skews.

The interiors were not seen in 1998, but there is evidence of working panelled shutters.
