16 Olrig Street, Thurso

16 Olrig Street in Thurso is a house built in 1834, featuring two storeys and an attic with three bays. The structure is made of rubble with tooled ashlar margins. The southeast front has a central door, and there is a modern single-storey harled lean-to extension that covers a former window on the left side of the ground floor. The house has two later 19th-century canted dormers and a symmetrical three-window facade at the rear, although two of these windows are blind. The gable facing Olrig Street is also symmetrical, with two windows on the ground floor and two on the first floor, one of which was originally a doorway. The windows have four-pane glazing, and the house features coped end stacks and a slate roof. Additionally, there is a high coped rubble garden wall with a pedestrian entrance from Olrig Street, flanked by a single rubble gate pier topped with a ball finial.
