Description
The building at 1-28 Windsor Street, Dundee, is a long terrace constructed around 1851-1872. It displays a transition in style, with a neo-classical appearance at its southern end and Renaissance detailing towards the north, the latter executed by James MacLaren, with the elevation stepping down towards the river. The terrace comprises 28 houses, arranged in pairs or single units.
The first eight houses (Nos 1-8) are severe neo-classical in style. These are three-bay houses arranged in pairs, with each pair featuring two architraved and corniced doorways at the centre. Aprons are present beneath the first-floor windows. A main cornice, balustrade, and an M-shaped slate roof with ridge stacks are characteristic features. Nos 2 and 3 are slightly recessed.
From No 9 onwards, the design adopts Renaissance detailing, with the houses stepped down towards the river. Nos 9-18 are five Renaissance stepped pairs of three-bay houses, with basements from No 11. They have two central doorways topped with consoled pediments, windows set within lugged architraves, and segmentally arched doorways with keystones. No 19 and 20 are single, stepped, four-bay houses, similar in style to Nos 9-18, with a pedimented doorpiece in the third bay (moved to the fourth bay at No 19), and cornicing. No 21 is a five-bay house in a similar style with a central pedimented doorpiece and dormers. Nos 22 and 23 are similarly styled, single-stepped three-bay houses with pedimented doorpieces to the left, balustrades and two dormers each. Nos 24, 25 and 26 are single-stepped three-bay houses, with consoled cornices to the left-hand doors and roll-moulded windows with segmental arches at first floor level. The dormers have been removed from No 24 (updated 2020). Nos 27 and 28 are paired three-bay houses. They are distinguished by paired, centrally located, consoled pedimented doors. Windows are set in margins and have segmental arches at first floor level with label stops. Balustrades are missing from Nos 9, 10, 17, 18, 24, 25, and 28.
Most windows are two-pane, sash and case, with some original 12-pane windows remaining at Nos 1 and 8, and original T-shaped casement dormer windows. The roofs are slate, with ridge stacks.
