Gregory Place, 45 And 47 March Street, Peebles

Gregory Place, located at 45 and 47 March Street in Peebles, was built in 1886 and consists of a semi-detached pair of symmetrical two-storey and attic five-bay tenements. The buildings are constructed from whinstone with cream sandstone ashlar dressings.

The front elevations feature a base course, bracketed cills, and cornices above the first-floor windows. Each tenement has a central panelled door with a plate glass letterbox fanlight and a consoled pediment. Above each door, there is a small pedimented panel inscribed with "GREGORY PLACE" for No 45 and "1886 AD" for No 47. The ground and first floors have windows in the flanking bays and bipartite windows in the outer bays, with the mullion removed at the ground floor to the left at No 45 and to the right at No 47. The ashlar wallhead frieze and cornice are interrupted by large pedimented bipartite ashlar dormers, where all but one of the mullions have been removed, except for the left dormer at No 47. The inner bays feature pedimented timber dormers, and there are shouldered wallhead stacks at the centres with aprons.

The end elevations are gabled, with a door at the centre on the ground floor and a window above on the first floor. The rear elevation is irregular with five bays, featuring stair windows at the centre and attic windows that break the eaves, including piend-roofed dormerheads in the centre and outer bays.

Originally, the windows were plate glass timber sash and case, with four panes for single windows and eight panes for the rear; over half of these have been replaced with modern versions. The roofs are covered with grey slates, and there are ashlar coped skews and corbel skewputts. The corniced stacks have ashlar dressings and octagonal cans.

The boundary walls consist of low rubble walls at the front with saddleback ashlar coping (the railings have been removed) and taller walls on the sides with boulder coping.
