Circa 1900, 2-storey 3-window red ashlar with buff dressings,

19th century wing with artisan pilaster doorpiece to Roods. Fire-damaged.
Re-categorised as C(S) from B for Group (2006). The listing relates specifically to the group interest of the subject. It applies, as always, to interior as well as exterior, as appropriate to building type.
B group.
The central area of Kirriemuir still substantially retains
the warm red sandstone character of the period of Sir J.M.
Barrie's novels. Most of the shop fronts are either original
or mid-Victorian. Only the Parish Church and the British
Linen Bank are of high architectural interest in the academic
sense. The remainder is well-proportioned provincial Georgian
vernacular with a few Victorian replacements. But the
internal grouping and spaces have much character and
atmosphere while the outward grouping on a high bank in the
bend of the Gairie Burn is picturesque. A fair number of
items are included for group value only, i.e. unity of
character and material.
