Description

1900-1910, probably James Newlands. Bizarre single
storey and attic cottage (with raised basement to N).
Random rubble composed of large boulders; heavy bullfaced
dressings. Symmetrical front elevation with centre door
set in heavy piers and trabeated doorpiece; large
projecting bowed bays at angles with ornately carved
capitals to window mullions, door jambs and door lintel.
Piended slate roof with central circular cupola. 2 later
swept dormers. Rustic loggia to rear.
Heavy rusticated garden walls.

Statement of Interest

Steeply sloping site to N.

Some other houses in West Road and elsewhere in Elgin have

similar heavy rusticated masonry, some known to have been

built by and probably designed by James Newlands, Builder

and quarryman around 1900. James Newlands worked on W

Kidner's alterations and extensions to Lesmurdie House, Elgin

and may have obtained design ideas from their architect.

Former Item 219 (1981 Revised List).
