Description
57 High Street in Aberdour is a small house from the 18th century that has undergone alterations and additions in the late 20th century. It is a two-storey, three-bay structure with a square plan, and a rear addition that creates an L-shape. The exterior is rendered with plain surrounds around the openings.
The northwest elevation, which is the principal facade, is asymmetrical. It features a centrally located door with a date stone above it reading 'WW IM 1745?', and a ground floor window to the right. There are also first-floor windows on both the right and left sides.
The northeast elevation is attached to 59 High Street, while the southwest elevation is attached to 55 High Street. The southeast elevation includes a modern two-storey gabled wing with a single-storey lean-to outshot and modern window designs.
The house has a modern timber boarded door and modern 12-pane timber sash and case windows. It has a pitched roof with a grey slate eaves easing course and modern red interlocking tiles. There are remnants of the original raised coped skew on the southwest side, while the northeast side features a replacement raised coped skew. The southwest elevation also has a replacement coped gable apex stack with circular cans.
