Description
This is a late 19th-century former manse, now converted into flatted dwellings, located on Broich Terrace, Crieff. The building exhibits Gothic detailing and is two storeys and an attic in height, with a three-bay gabled design. It is constructed of squared and snecked stugged rubble, accented by contrasting droved ashlar dressings, with base and moulded eaves courses.
The principal south elevation features a stone porch with stiffleaf-capitalled columns, a pointed-arch entrance opening, and a mutuled cornice. The entrance doorway has a deep-set, panelled timber door with a plate glass fanlight, and a single window above. A gabled bay to the right incorporates a full-height corniced canted window, surmounted by a raised blocking course with carved quatrefoil and trefoil detail. A glazed, pointed-arch arrowslit sits within the finialled gablehead. To the left of the centre bay is a tripartite window at ground level, with a bipartite window above, breaking into a finialled gabletted dormerhead adorned with trefoil detail.
The east elevation presents a gabled bay to the right, featuring bipartite windows on each floor, along with a square panel in the gablehead. A single window is present on each floor to the left, again with a gabletted dormerhead displaying quatrefoil detail. A slightly set-back single-storey wing, now known as Manse Cottage, extends to the outer right.
The west elevation features a gabled bay to the right with a single window on each floor and a quatrefoil detail in the gablehead. A bipartite window on each floor is situated in the bay to the left, with the characteristic gabletted dormerhead. A single window is centred on the first floor.
The north elevation is characterized by gabled outer bays flanking a narrow centre, with steps leading to a timber door and window above. A small courtyard is created at the rear, adjacent to Manse Cottage. Plate glass glazing is found in timber sash and case windows, with an 8-pane glazing pattern in Manse Cottage, although some modern glazing is present on the east elevation. The roof is covered with graded grey slates, and incorporates modern rooflights. Coped ashlar stacks feature cans, alongside gablet-coped skewes and moulded skewputts. Cast-iron downpipes are fitted with decorative rainwater hoppers and fixings.
The lower flat within the manse retains decorative plasterwork cornicing, a compartmented ceiling with centre roses, panelled timber shutters, a timber fire surround, and a screen door with etched glass.
Manse Cottage is a single-storey, two-bay, L-plan gabled cottage built of squared and snecked rubble with contrasting ashlar dressings.
The boundary walls are coped rubble, complemented by gablet-coped, square-section ashlar gatepiers with decorative ironwork gates.
