St Andrew's Manse, Newton Terrace, Blairgowrie

St Andrew's Manse is a 19th-century building with earlier origins before 1865, located in Newton Terrace, Blairgowrie. It is a classically-detailed former manse, originally three bays wide and with a basement, and extended to the rear. The house is constructed of ashlar facing roughly squared and snecked rubble, with droved quoins and raised quoin strips, featuring base, band, and eaves courses.

The principal, or south-east, elevation is symmetrical. A broad, segmental-arched doorway with a two-leaf panelled timber door, flanking windows, and a full-width segmental fanlight is centrally positioned, with steps leading up to it. Above the door is a round-headed window, set within a panelled apron inscribed with 'BUSH HOUSE', surmounted by a semicircular pediment which breaks the eaves. Flanking bays are canted, with canted windows at each floor and a small basement opening at the centre.

The south-west elevation features a broad, advanced bay to the outer right, containing a tripartite window on the ground floor, a single window above, and smaller windows on each floor returning to the left. A narrow, set-back bay is centrally located with a first-floor window, and a further ground-floor window to the left return. A later bay to the left incorporates a panelled timber door and a plate glass fanlight, with an enlarged window to the right on the ground floor and a first-floor window above.

The north-east elevation has a broad bay to the left of centre, featuring a first-floor window, a single-storey bay with a window in the re-entrant angle to the right, and a slightly set-back lean-to addition. A set-back face of the two-storey block has a small window at the outer right on the first floor. The narrow north-west (rear) elevation has a single window at ground level.

The windows are timber sash and case, with 6, 8, and plate glass panes. The roof is piend and platformed, covered with grey slates. Coped ashlar stacks incorporate some cans, and the eaves deeply overhang.

The interior retains some decorative plasterwork, panelled timber shutters, brass sash lifts, and fire surrounds of black marble, timber, and cast iron. A corniced screen door with etched glass is present, leading to a stairhall with a winding staircase and landing, exhibiting decorative cast-iron balusters and a cupola with modern glazing.

An ancillary building of two storeys, with a slated rectangular plan and rubble construction, is located against the north-west boundary wall. It features a doorway and a first-floor opening to the south-east, and a single-storey elevation to the north-west with a hayloft opening.

The site is enclosed by semicircular-coped boundary walls, with a stone stair leading to an ironwork pedestrian gate at the north-west, and low saddleback-coped boundary walls with inset railings to the south-east.
