Description

Greenhead Weaving Factory, built in 1888 by Ninian MacWhannell, is a four-storey, 13-bay rectangular former weaving factory that has been converted into flats. The east elevation features a four-bay gable facing the street. The building is constructed of red brick in English garden wall bond, accented by white brick quoins and dressings. It has banded cill and lintel courses in white brick, with an additional banded course at the third floor on the east elevation. The openings are segmental headed, with raised concrete cills and chamfered stone cills at the ground level of the east elevation.

On the south elevation, the outer left bay at the ground floor is slightly recessed, and there is a chamfered base course for three bays to the right. A doorway with a replacement door and a blind fanlight is located to the left of center. The side elevations feature flat arched openings at the ground level of the outer right bays on both the north and south elevations. A stair tower is positioned at the outer left bay of the north elevation.

The building is topped with a pitched slate roof, which has ashlar coped skews and gableted skew putts on the north gable.
