Description

7 Graham Place in Stromness is a house built in the earlier to mid 19th century, with later alterations and additions. This two-storey and attic, three-bay rectangular-plan house is symmetrical and part of a terrace, situated on ground that rises to the west. The exterior is harled with painted cement margins around the openings.

On the south elevation, which is the principal front, there is a deep-set part-glazed timber panelled door located in the central bay, with a window above it on the first floor. The bays on either side feature enlarged windows at ground level and a window above on the first floor, along with large dormers above.

The house has modern windows at ground level and in the dormers, while the first floor is fitted with 12-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slate, featuring slated dormers with stone ridges, concrete skews, and a rooflight positioned between the dormers. There is a harled stack on the west gablehead and uPVC rainwater goods.
