Description
This late 18th century building at 86-88 High Street, Dunblane, is a two-storey, four-bay, rectangular-plan former town house that has been converted into a restaurant on the ground floor with tenements above. The exterior features harled walls with squared yellow sandstone and rubble on the sides and rear, along with slightly raised pilaster quoins.
On the northwest, or principal elevation, there are large modern windows on the ground floor with an entrance located to the centre left. The upper storey has regular fenestration, with 12-pane, timber-framed, sash and case windows. The eaves are adorned with an architrave, a projecting cornice, and a blocking course. There are also two small piended roof dormers.
The southeast, or rear elevation, was not visible in 2001. Both the northeast and southwest side elevations are blank gable ends.
The roof is covered in grey slates with lead flashing, and features cast-iron rainwater goods, as well as coped gable stacks and skews. The interior has been refurbished for restaurant use on the ground floor, while the upper storey tenements were not seen in 2001.
