Description

A single-storey, four-bay house, rebuilt in 1909, with a steeply sloped gabled attic and gablet dormer. The walls are harled with a base course, and the openings have stop-chamfered margins and cills. The graded roof is slated with later 20th century flat dormers to the rear (west) and there is a corniced gablehead chimney to the south. The skews are saw-toothed with bracketted skewputts and trefoil finials to the gable apexes. There is a modern extension to the rear elevation. The multi-pane glazing was replaced with single-pane timber units after 2009. The building forms part of a terrace of late-18th century, largely single-storey dwellings in Creebridge, located directly to the east of the river in Newton Stewart.

Statement of Interest

10 Creebridge meets the criteria for listing for the following reasons:

• The building is a distinctive example of an early 20^th century redevelopment of an earlier traditional house that retains its historic character, particularly to the front elevation.
• The building is well-detailed and shows features of definite architectural quality, including the corniced chimneys, the stepped skews and the treatment of the openings.
• The prominent wallhead gable and dormer arrangement, is a distinctive regional variation, which is enhanced by the stone detailing.
• The building has been extended to the rear but it retains a good degree of authenticity in its surviving exterior form and its historic character has not been adversely affected by later alterations.
• Its early 20^th century setting is largely intact and forms part of an architecturally and historically significant group of other listed dwellings along the street, which are largely earlier in date.
• It is not a rare or early example of its building type but its design quality and level of detailing is notable for domestic buildings of this date and type within the region.
