Description
3 Bridge House Terrace in Peebles is a two-storey and attic flatted terrace built in 1736, partially rebuilt in 1872, and restored in 1984. The building features two identical blocks of four flats to the east and a west block containing two shops on the ground floor with a flat above. The exterior is harled with ashlar margins and quoin strips, and the doors have rectangular plate glass fanlights.
On the north elevation facing Biggiesknowe, the east blocks are symmetrical with paired doors at the center on the ground floor, flanked by narrow windows and additional windows in the outer bays. The first floor has a pair of narrow windows at the center and windows in the outer bays. The west block has an irregular layout with a door flanked by windows at the ground level, and on the first floor, there is one window to the left and a pair of narrow windows to the right.
The west elevation is gabled, featuring a shop at ground level with a two-leaf glazed door at the center, flanked by large segmental-headed plate glass windows with recessed aprons. Above the door is a date stone marking the year 1984. The first floor has a pair of windows at the center. The gablehead has framed panels dated 1736 and 1872.
On the south elevation facing the river, the east blocks are similar to the north elevation but with the floors reversed. There are smaller windows flanking the doors, and access to the flats is via a balcony supported by cast-iron columns. Each block has a pair of piend-roofed canted dormers, and the far right window at ground level (leading to No 5 Biggiesknowe) has been converted into a back door with steps to the ground. The west block has a pair of windows at ground level, although the left window is largely obscured by steps to the balcony. On the first floor, there is a door to the left flanked by small windows, and a window to the right, along with a single dormer to the right and a Velux window to the left.
The east elevation is a blank gable with adjoining buildings on the right. Originally, in 1872, the building had four-pane timber sash and case windows, but many modern windows have since been installed. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are ashlar coped skews and rendered stacks with ashlar quoin strips and coping.
