Description

14 Lynedoch Place in Edinburgh is an extensive classical terrace built in 1823 by James Milne. The terrace consists of two-storey and basement, three-bay townhouses, with a slightly advanced nine-bay, three-storey centerpiece featuring a pediment. Notable alterations include the addition of a canted bay to No. 22 by C.S.S. Johnston in 1893 and later modifications by Leadbetter, Fairley and Reid in 1938-39. The buildings are set back from the road, with garden fronts on a site that slopes steeply to the north.

The terrace features later ashlar attic storeys on Nos. 3, 8, 9, 10, 11, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and later canted and slate-hung dormers on Nos. 12 and 22. The basement areas include some vaulted cellars and retaining walls. The exterior is made of sandstone ashlar, with a droved finish at the basement and a channelled finish at the ground floor. There is a banded base course and a band course at the ground floor, along with a banded cill course at the first and second floors. The corniced eaves course adds to the classical detailing. The first-floor windows feature moulded architraves, with the centerpiece having corniced windows. Nos. 17 and 18 have cast-iron balconies on the first floor, and there are cast-iron railings along the street, some of which include later arched cast-iron lamp holders with large glass bowls.

The windows predominantly consist of plate glass in timber sash and case, with some featuring 12-pane designs. No. 22 has 12-over-2-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is a double pitch M-section covered with grey slates, and there are corniced ashlar gable end and ridge stacks with modern clay cans. The rainwater goods are made of cast iron.

Inside, the interiors are characterized by a decorative classical scheme, with well-detailed cornicing at the ground and first floors. No. 21 features a Doric columned entrance hall, while some first-floor drawing rooms at the front have ornate ceiling roses. There have been some later conversions to flats in 2008.
