Manse, 11 Albany Terrace, Dundee

The building at 11 Albany Terrace in Dundee is a pair of semi-detached villas designed by Young and Meldrum in 1878. These two-storey and attic homes feature an Italianate tower and have an ashlar front with a snecked rubble rear. The symmetrical elevation facing Albany Terrace includes advanced gable ends with pilastered canted bays that have cavetto corbelled square plan gablets, each adorned with single arched lights. The inner bays feature pilastered bipartite windows, with a pedimented dormer above each house. Number 10 has a set-back three-storey Italianate tower, which includes a channelled ashlar arched doorpiece. The top stage of the tower has twin arched lights separated by central colonettes and is topped with a low pyramidal roof that has a wrought-iron finial. There is also a single-storey bow in the re-entrant angle and a chamfered two-storey wing facing Law Street, which has pedimented and modern bipartite dormers. The roofs are covered with slate and have broad eaves, while ridge stacks feature square-plan cans. The windows are sash and case with a two-pane glazing pattern. The boundary walls are built of rubble, with square gatepiers and wrought-iron railings leading up to the steps.
