Description
315, 317, 319, 321, 323, and 325 High Street in Linlithgow is a three-storey, eleven-bay tenement built in 1937 by W Scott, designed in the style of a 17th-century Scottish local authority building. The structure features cream sandstone random rubble with ashlar dressings on the main elevations. Notable architectural elements include an eaves course, doorpieces with rounded angles, and four-panel doors, two of which have glazed upper panels. The windows are single bipartite types with ashlar mullions, and there are gabled dormer-headed windows with scrolled skewputts, as well as bipartite windows with ashlar mullions. The crow-stepped gables are adorned with moulded beak skewputts.
The north (entrance) elevation has eight symmetrical bays in the center, flanked by slightly advanced taller crow-stepped gabled end bays. The two central bays feature bipartite windows on the ground and first floors, with additional bipartite windows above that have swept dormerheads. To the right and left of the center, there are three bays each with doorpieces in the middle, a window on either side, and two windows on the first floor, plus two more with gabled dormerheads above on the second floor. The left end bay has bipartite windows on all three floors and an arrowslit in the gablehead. The right end bay is lop-sided with gables extending almost to the ground floor; it also has bipartite windows on all floors and an arrowslit in the gablehead, along with a ground floor window that features a plaque of the Linlithgow Burgh crest above, depicting a greyhound chained to an oak tree.
The west (side) elevation has a steeply pitched roof that sweeps low above the ground floor, presenting two asymmetrical bays, with a doorpiece to the right and a swept dormer above. A tall, off-set, coped stack is located at the center, accompanied by two small rooflights to the right. The building has 12-pane sash and case windows, with 8 panes in each light of the bipartite windows and casements in the dormers on the west side. The roof is covered with grey slate and features four rendered stacks, along with original rainwater goods.
Additionally, there is a round-arched pedestrian gateway set in a coped rubble wall that is attached to the west elevation.
