Description

109 High Street in Selkirk is a house built in the earlier to mid 19th century, with later additions and alterations. It is a two-storey, three-bay structure that forms part of an irregular terrace. The exterior features squared and snecked whinstone with painted rendered dressings, a harled southwest elevation, and whinstone rubble at the rear. Notable architectural details include a base course, long and short quoins, and margins around the openings, as well as an eaves course.

On the southeast elevation facing High Street, there are four steps leading to a deep-set modern panelled door at the center, which has a plate glass letterbox fanlight above, all set within a corniced doorway. There is a window above the door on the first floor, and each flanking bay has a window on both floors.

The northwest elevation features a full-height addition at the center and in the bay to the right, with another single-storey addition projecting from the bay to the right. The windows are plate glass timber sash and case types. The roof is slate, with harled and coped wallhead stacks on the side elevations and a further rubble, coped wallhead stack at the gablehead of the central projection at the rear. Additionally, there is a 19th-century skylight with two panes in the bay to the right of the rear elevation.

The interior was not seen during the last inspection in 1995.
