Description

16 and 18 High Street in Hawick is an earlier 19th-century, three-storey, two-bay tenement and shop that is part of a terrace. The building features a central shop window flanked by entrance doors, with corniced window margins and a canted dormer. The shopfront is made of painted ashlar, while the upper sections are constructed from painted, tooled, squared, coursed sandstone with painted margins above. There is a base course, a plain shopfront fascia, and an eaves course. A quoin strip is present on the left side. The first- and second-floor windows have moulded margins with raised cills.

The shop door to the left is half-glazed and recessed, while the central shop window has a single vertical glazing bar. To the right, there is a four-panel timber tenement door with a fanlight above. The shopfront features plate glass, and the upper windows have four-pane glazing in timber sash and case frames. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a metal ridge, with ashlar-coped skews. A coped red-brick stack is located to the north, sharing circular buff clay cans with No 16, which is listed separately. The building also has cast-iron rainwater goods.
