Description
195 and 197 High Street in Leslie are a pair of two-storey, three-bay flatted dwellings dating from the earlier to mid 19th century. They are located on a corner site and have been converted to a shop on the ground floor to the right, forming part of an irregular terrace. The buildings are constructed from squared and snecked whinstone, featuring contrasting long and short work quoins.
On the south elevation facing High Street, there are paired doors with plate-glass fanlights at the center, a single window in the outer bay to the left, and two 19th-century shop windows with a door between them to the right. The first floor has a regular arrangement of windows.
The east elevation has shop windows to the left, with a window above on the first floor. The glazing throughout is modern, with a sash and case effect in the residential areas on the first floor, and a "stick-on" small-pane effect glazing pattern at ground level. The roof is covered with purple slates, and there are coped ashlar gablehead stacks with some cans, as well as coped ashlar skews with scrolled skewputts at both the front and rear. Additionally, there are thackstanes and a decorated rainwater hopper on the west side.
