Description

11 Greenfield Place in Lerwick is a mid to late 19th century, two-storey house built over a basement, featuring an asymmetrical Tudor design in an L-plan layout. The exterior is constructed from harl-pointed sandstone with stugged and droved dressings and details. It has a base course and margined windows with chamfered reveals.

On the northwest, or principal elevation, there is a four-panel timber entrance door with a two-pane fanlight above, which is centered on the principal floor and accessed by stone steps flanked by harled side walls. Above the entrance, a dormer window breaks the eaves, slightly offset to the right, featuring a gabled stone dormerhead. There is a matching dormer in the bay to the right. The left bay is gabled and slightly advanced, with a wide window centered on the principal floor and a slit window in the gablehead.

The northeast elevation is asymmetrical and consists of two bays. The left bay has a slightly advanced gabled section with wide windows on both the basement and principal floors. Narrow basement windows flank the center in the bay to the right, which also has a dormer breaking the eaves above, matching those on the principal front.

The southwest, or rear elevation, is also asymmetrical. It features a blank gabled end of the principal elevation that is advanced in the left bay, while the gabled rear elevation of the northeast elevation is recessed in the right bay, containing a tall stair window to the left and a garden door to the right.

The house has multi-pane timber sash and case windows, with lying-pane sashes on the first floor and a 16-pane stair window. The roof is covered with grey slate and has cast-iron gutters and downpipes, which are decorated with brackets on the principal elevation. The ashlar stacks are stugged and droved, featuring bases with defined flues, deep copes, and tall circular cans. The ashlar skews have copes with bracketed block skewputts.

Inside, there is a panelled inner entrance door with a two-pane etched glass upper section. The timber internal stair features cast-iron balusters and a timber handrail, along with panelled doors and shutters.

The property is enclosed by random rubble boundary walls surrounding the garden. There are droved ashlar gatepiers with bases and gabled caps, along with flanking quadrant walls and a timber picket gate on the right.
