Description
57-59 High Street in Dunblane is a Jacobethan tenement building dating from around 1880. It stands two stories high with an attic and features a four-bay, triangular plan on a corner site. The building is asymmetrical and includes shops on the ground floor. A notable feature is the two-stage turret with a conical roof located at the corner. The exterior is constructed from squared, bull-faced red sandstone courses with yellow ashlar sandstone margins, and it has long and short quoins. The windows are architraved with projecting cills.
On the east elevation facing High Street, there are modern plate glass shop fronts at ground level, with a door positioned to the center left and a blind canted ashlar bay to the outer right. The second-story windows have moulded architraves with a projecting cornice, and there is a moulded eaves course. A timber box dormer is situated to the right, while a gabled bay with a window to the gablehead is on the outer left. The right return features a two-stage, corbelled, octagonal turret with a string course between stages, a projecting cornice, and a conical roof topped with a cast-iron finial.
The west elevation, which is the rear, is two stories with an attic and a raised basement due to the falling ground, displaying irregular fenestration. There is a gabled bay to the right and a chamfered angle to the outer right, along with an abutting turret to the outer left.
The south elevation is obscured by an adjacent building. The windows throughout are predominantly six-pane upper sash and case windows, with plate glass on the lower level. The roof is covered with grey slates and lead flashing, and there are cast-iron rainwater goods.
Inside, the ground and first floors have been refurbished for office use, while the attic storey tenement was not seen during the last inspection in 2001.
