Description
The Station Hotel, located on Dunkeld Street in Aberfeldy, was built in 1884. This two-storey building features a basement and attic, and has a distinctive polygonal-roofed corner tower with decorative bargeboarding. The exterior is constructed from squared chlorite-slate rubble, accented with stugged ashlar dressings, and includes a base course and a cornice at the ground floor. Stone mullions are present throughout.
On the southeast elevation, the ground floor has two bays on the left with three fixed display windows, separated by fielded pilasters and flanked by ashlar piers. To the right, there are two similarly designed bays, all beneath a deep cornice and plain frieze. The first floor features a tripartite window to the left and a bipartite window to the right, with dormer windows above; the left dormer is bipartite and the right is single.
The corner tower elevation on the east side has a two-leaf part-glazed timber door with a plate glass fanlight at the ground level, leading to a frieze and cornice with a single window on each floor above. The attic window has a dormerhead that transitions into the polygonal tower.
The northeast entrance elevation includes a bay near the center with a tall, slated, piended porch featuring a window. To the left, there is a return with a hoodmould that incorporates a monogram above a two-leaf panelled timber door, with a relief-carved shield above it dated '1884'. A gabled stair window is located above this set-back face, and there is an extension in the re-entrant angle to the right. A broad gabled bay on the left has a window on each floor at the outer right, along with a corbelled stepped chimney breast displaying 'STATION HOTEL' at the center. There are two gabled bays to the right with regular fenestration on the first and attic floors.
The southwest elevation features a timber door on the outer left and a stone forestair to the right, with two windows on the first floor and two smaller dormer windows breaking the eaves above.
The northwest rear elevation has a gabled design with a raised basement, containing two windows at ground level and two small windows in the gablehead.
The windows are timber sash and case with plate glass glazing, and there is a margined stair window. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the building has cavetto-coped ashlar stacks with cans. The eaves overhang, featuring plain bargeboarding, are complemented by decoratively finialled dormers and gables that also showcase fine decorative bargeboarding.
The interior was not seen in 2001.
