Description
St Mary's Manse, located at 69 Dalkeith Road in Dundee, was built by Charles and Leslie Ower between 1889 and 1890. This building features an idiosyncratic mixed neo-medieval design and is constructed from rubble courses with red sandstone dressings, standing two stories tall with an attic.
The south front is balanced with three bays, showcasing two gables that include tripartite windows and single light depressed arch attic windows topped with square hoodmoulds. The left-hand gable has a slightly projecting dormer above a single-windowed center bay. The openings are stop-chamfered.
The entrance front is bold, featuring a steep pavilion-roofed projecting vestibule and an open porch. It is adorned with unequal round and semi-lozenge arches supported by circular columns with richly sculptured capitals and granite shafts. A single center window is situated between the mullion features, topped by a large gabled dormer with shafts above and terracotta finialed ridges. To the right, there is a large buttressed inglenook stack. A projecting window band consists of four depressed arched stained glass lights, and there is a large panel to the right displaying the arms of Dundee along with a Latin inscription that reads: "Bless Lord, the House of Your Minister."
The roof is slate, featuring terracotta ridges and cross finials, with some spiral chimney cans missing. The windows are sash and case with a two-pane glazing pattern.
Surrounding the property are low boundary walls made of red ashlar, with gatepiers that have pointed caps. Modern gates are present, but the railings are missing.
