Description

39 Main Street in Pathhead is a later 18th century, one-and-a-half storey, three-bay rectangular-plan house featuring symmetrical window arrangements. The exterior is constructed from coursed tooled rubble and yellow sandstone, with long and short quoins and plain skews.

On the southwest elevation, there is a central doorway with a stone cill and dressings, flanked by rectangular windows that have tooled rybats and cills, with down-pipes on either side. The roof features three flush slated gable dormers, each with tooled stone fronts, replacement stone gableheads, and small stone skews. The central dormer has a bipartite window with a chamfered stone mullion and a stone plaque in the gablehead.

The northwest elevation displays a blind coursed rubble gable with a harled stone chimney stack at the gablehead, topped with a stone neck cope and a replacement pair of hexagonal chimney cans.

The northeast elevation was not visible in 2000. The southeast elevation is adjacent to another cottage and features a harled stone chimney stack at the gablehead, stone cope, and three plain chimney cans.

The house has 12-pane timber sash and case windows, with 4-pane single lights in the front center. The roof is covered with grey slate and has replacement ridge tiles, while the rainwater goods are made of black painted cast iron. The interior was not seen in 2000.
