Description
11 Howegate in Hawick is an earlier 19th-century, three-storey, three-bay terraced tenement that has been redeveloped by Aitken & Turnbull in the late 20th century. It is situated on a sloping site and features a smooth render on the shopfront, while the upper storeys are made of painted rubble with painted droved ashlar dressings. The rear of the building is constructed from squared and snecked tooled yellow sandstone, which includes raised cills.
The shopfront has a plain fascia and cornice, with two pilastered doorways that have rectangular fanlights, arranged in an asymmetrical five-bay layout. Above the shopfront, there is regular fenestration with raised cills, while the rear displays irregular fenestration, also with raised cills.
The shop windows are fitted with plate glass and feature a single vertical timber glazing bar on the right window. The other windows consist predominantly of 12-pane glazing in timber sash-and-case style. The roof is covered with grey slate and includes coped, rendered gablehead stacks with circular clay cans, along with cast-iron rainwater goods.
