Description
Cromwell Bank is a house located at 32 Cromwell Road in Burntisland, dating from the earlier 19th century. It is a two-storey, three-bay structure with a rectangular plan, built from narrow coursed, stugged ashlar and squared rubble. The building features a dividing band course, an eaves cornice, long and short quoins, an architraved doorcase, and raised margins.
The southeast, or principal elevation, is symmetrical, with steps leading up to a two-leaf, part-glazed door at the center. There are windows in the flanking bays and regular windows on the first floor, along with two modern rooflights above the bay to the right. The northwest, or entrance elevation, is also symmetrical, featuring a door at the center behind a modern lean-to glazed porch, flanked by windows and regular windows on the first floor, plus a 19th-century rooflight. The southwest elevation has a first-floor window that is off-center to the left, with a blinded window above in the gablehead. The northeast elevation has an adjoining single-storey outbuilding.
The windows are fitted with plate glass glazing in timber sash and case frames. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are broad, coped ashlar gablehead stacks with polygonal cans, along with ashlar coped skews and thackstanes.
Inside, there is a curved staircase featuring decorative cast-iron balusters and a timber handrail.
The property includes outbuildings and boundary walls, with an L-plan outbuilding adjoining the house on the northeast side. This outbuilding is constructed of painted rubble with brickwork alterations for a garage and has a tall stack. The boundary walls are made of coped rubble with proud coped ashlar, featuring a stop-chamfered doorway, a timber door, and an engraved name on the lintel.
