Description

The North of Scotland Bank, located at 46 Leslie Street in Blairgowrie, is an earlier to mid 19th century building that has been converted from a tall two-storey, three-bay classical house into offices. The exterior is finished in painted ashlar, featuring architraved windows and bracketed cills, with squared rubble and ashlar quoins and raised margins on the sides and rear. It includes base and band courses, as well as an eaves cornice with a deep blocking course. The windows have stone mullions.

On the northwest (principal) elevation, the central bay at ground level features a coupled Roman Doric column porch with a mutule cornice and blocking course, along with a lugged architraved doorpiece that holds a two-leaf panelled timber door and a plate glass fanlight. Above, there is a slightly advanced bipartite window on the first floor with a raised pediment. The outer bays are also slightly advanced, each displaying a wide-centre tripartite window on both floors.

The southwest (Croft Court) elevation has a slightly advanced central bay with narrow windows on each floor and a prominent shouldered wallhead stack. To the right, there are additional windows on each floor, while the left side features a blank bay. There is a single-storey wing set back on the outer right.

The northeast elevation shows an advanced block to the right of centre with windows in the outer bays on each floor, and a projecting centre bay with a dominant shouldered wallhead stack. The left side has a slightly set-back bay with a bipartite window on the outer left and a panelled timber door with a plate glass fanlight to the right, along with two single windows on the first floor. A low modern building is attached at the outer left.

The building features various glazing patterns, including 8-pane, 12-pane, and plate glass in timber sash and case windows, except for the first floor left on the northwest elevation, which has fixed plate glass glazing in the centre light. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are cavetto-coped ashlar stacks.

Inside, the building showcases some decorative and moulded plasterwork, panelled doors, and a dog-leg staircase with square-section newel posts and boarded balusters.
