Statement of Interest

Sales particulars from 1878 show that 24, 26 Lovers Walk was built by Alan Burgess Crombie and James Crombie, two twins who were members of an architectural practice based in Dumfries and previously tun by their father Alexander. The brothers studied in London and New York before going in to partnership with their father and latterly between themselves. 24, 26 Lovers Walk is a relatively late example of their combined work as their partnership was dissolved in 1881 with James moving to London and Alan continuing to work in Dumfries. They are responsible for a number of local buildings and for work to both St. Mary,s Church and St Andrew,s Cathedral in Dumfries (see separate listings)
