Description
74 Baker Street in Stirling is a three-storey, eight-bay tenement designed in the Scottish 17th century style by Sir Frank Mears & Partners, in collaboration with Stirling Burgh Architect. It was conceived in 1938 and completed post-war in 1956. The building features an advanced curvilinear gabled entrance bay, with harled walls and ashlar margins in five bays to the left, an eaves band, and projecting cills.
On the south elevation facing Baker Street, there is an architraved and corniced entrance at the ground level within the advanced gabled entrance bay. Above this entrance, there is a dated and ciphered panel featuring the initials 'RBS', which stands for Royal Burgh of Stirling, framed by scrolled ornamentation. To the left of the entrance bay, there are four windows, and to the right, there are three windows, all with regular fenestration above. The building is fitted with timber tilt and turn windows, has grey slate roofing, and two ridge stacks.
