Statement of Interest

Traditionally sited with its gabled end to the street, this crowstepped gabled building originally comprised 2 dwellings and is still divided, the ground floor of the west house being converted to a shop. Its southern elevation forms one side of St Magnus Lane. Features of interest to note include the unusually tall wallhead stack to the south and the intact crowstepped gables.
