1-3 High Street, Hawick

1-3 High Street in Hawick is a pair of early 19th century tenements that form the end of a terrace. These three-storey buildings with an attic share a shop at the ground floor. The shopfront is made of painted ashlar, while the upper storeys are constructed of squared, coursed, painted whinstone rubble with raised painted ashlar margins. The rear of the buildings is rendered. The shopfront features a continuous design across both buildings, supported by broad fluted pilasters.

No 1 has two bays on the first and second floors, with a segmental-headed dormer that is offset to the right. The left corner features raised long-and-short quoins on both the first and second floors. The front has regular fenestration, while the rear displays irregular fenestration.

No 3 includes a half-glazed, timber-panelled tenement door located to the outer right. This building also has three bays on the first and second floors, with two canted dormers symmetrically placed. There is a cill course and a lintel course on the first floor, as well as an eaves course. The right side features raised long-and-short quoins on the first and second floors. Like No 1, the front has regular fenestration, and the rear has irregular fenestration.

Inside, there are some cornices and panelling around the windows. The shop windows have been modernized with plate glass, while the other windows are predominantly timber sash-and-case with plate glass. The roof is covered with grey slate and features ashlar-coped skews. No 1 has an ashlar-coped rubble stack with ashlar quoins, thackstanes, and circular clay cans at the south end, while No 3 has ashlar-coped, rendered stacks with thackstanes and circular clay cans.
