Description
61 West High Street in Lauder is a mid-19th century, two-storey double-fronted terraced house that was extended at the rear in the later 19th century. The main elevation facing south features coursed cherry-caulking whinstone with droved ashlar dressings, while the rear extension is made of yellow brick. The principal elevation has droved architraves and projecting sills for the windows.
The symmetrical design of the south elevation includes a central entrance with a panelled timber door and a rectangular fanlight, flanked by windows on each floor and one above. Quoins are present on either side of the elevation, topped with coped skews.
On the north elevation, there is an entrance with a rectangular fanlight and a boarded timber door located to the right of centre, along with flanking windows on each floor and one above, featuring projecting brick sills.
The east elevation is adjacent to 59 West High Street, while the west elevation adjoins 63 West High Street. The house mainly has four-pane timber sash and case windows and is topped with grey slate roofs; the rear extension has a piended roof. The main section has flanking coursed stone ridge stacks with band courses, and there is a single brick corner stack on the rear extension with round cans.
The interior was not inspected in 1998.
