Description

Provost Stevenson's Lodging, located at 12 Broad Street in Stirling, is a building that dates back to the 17th century, with a later 19th-century front and a rebuild in 1963. It is a four-storey structure with five bays. The ground floor features harled, painted render, while there are cornices at the first and second floors, architraves at the third, a cill band at the first and third floors, and projecting cills at the second floor, along with an eaves band.

The south elevation on Broad Street has six bays at the ground level, with a large recessed entrance on the left, four regular windows in the center, and a pedestrian pend entrance to the outer right that leads to the rear. The upper floors have a regular arrangement of windows.

At the rear, the Provost Stevenson's Lodging has four bays, arranged in a group of three and one. The three bays on the left feature regularly spaced windows, while the right bay is more prominently advanced, showcasing a crowstepped gable with two windows on the left at the ground and first floors.

The east elevation of No. 12 has a central entrance at the ground level, which is accessed by a flight of 12 steps leading to the first-floor entrance. There is a window to the left at ground level, with four bays above, each containing windows, and round-headed dormers in the attic to the center, left, and right.

The west elevation is five bays wide, with a grouping of 1-2-1-1. The central two-bay group features a window in each bay at ground level, with paired gabled dormers above. The remaining bays have a window at ground level with a dormer that breaks the eaves.

Inside Provost Stevenson’s Lodging, the attic floor contains a stone bolection-moulded fireplace from the 17th century, while the ground floor has a kitchen fireplace that is now blocked up in the gable. The windows are mostly timber sash and case, except for those on the second floor, which are modern. The ground and first floors have four-pane glazing, while the upper sashes on the third floor are smaller. The roof is covered with grey slates.
