Description

26-8 High Street in Dundee is a commercial and tenement building dating from around 1785. It stands four storeys tall with an attic and is located on a corner site. The exterior features painted rubble, which may have originally been harled or lime plastered, along with painted ashlar dressings and a piended grey slate roof. The ground floor has modern shopfronts, while the upper floors showcase margined windows with timber casements and fixed panels above, leading to the third floor, which has leaded glass. The building also has rusticated quoins, ashlar-coped skews with skewblocks, and an angle die, with brick stacks.

On the High Street elevation, the building has five bays arranged in a 1-2-1-1 pattern. The ground floor consists of shopfronts, and there are five windows on the first, second, and third floors that are symmetrically arranged. The centre features a wallhead gable with two small windows. The Crichton Street elevation has three bays, with shopfronts on the ground floor, paired and two single windows on the first floor, and three windows on the second and third floors, although the centre windows are blocked.

The interior has not been seen.
