Description

51-57 Grant Street is a circa 1821-1850, 2-storey and attic classical tenement and shops with a bowed corner bay on an acute-angled junction corner site. It is constructed in red sandstone laid in courses. The northeast elevation has three windows and four doors to the ground floor and four windows to the first floor. The bowed corner bay has a piended roof. The building has raised ashlar margins, a banded string course and a banded eaves course. There are three small piended dormers set into the pitch of the roof which is of grey slate. The 3-bay elevation to Upper Kessock Street has the lower section of a wallhead chimney stack at the first bay and to the right, a pair of square-plan, capped sandstone gatepiers accessing a courtyard to the rear.

The interior, seen in 2016, has been reconfigured. The main staircase at 57 Grant Street has a scrolled timber handrail.
