50-52 High Street, Elgin

50-52 High Street in Elgin is a merchant's house dating from 1694. It is a three-storey building with an attic and features a three-bay facade. The ground floor is arcaded, constructed from harled rubble with stone margins. It has four round-headed arches supported by squat pillars with square moulded capitals, one of which leads to a pend. The windows on the first and second floors were slightly enlarged in the early 19th century and have tooled margins. The attic window on the east gable retains its original roll moulding. The building has two swept dormers in the stone slab roof and three similar dormers of varying sizes at the rear, along with crowsteps and moulded copes on the gable chimneys.

At the rear, there is a contemporary three-storey, irregular two-bay gabled and crowstepped wing that includes two chamfered doorways, one likely leading to a scale and plat stair. There are no remaining original internal features except for portions of the stair. Additionally, there is a further two-storey, three-bay building from the 17th or 18th century that opens onto a close, made of rubble with chamfered mouldings around the door and windows. A large later 19th-century warehouse, two storeys tall and six bays wide, is also present, constructed from rubble with stugged and tooled dressings. The single-storey, three-bay side elevation of 48 High Street flanks the close.
