Standing Building Recording (5 August 2020 - 7 August 2020)
NO 11743 23932 On 5–7 August 2020 historic building recording was carried out at 4 Atholl Crescent, Perth, in advance of internal alterations to return the building to residential use.
The building is part of an A-listed late 18th-century crescent on the N edge of the historic burgh, facing the North Inch. For many years it was in use as professional offices, but it preserves many features of its origins as a high-status dwelling in what was a fashionable part of the growing Georgian city. This includes decorative plaster work, elegant doors and shutters, and ornate fireplaces.
