Statement of Interest

Designed as a public house and shop with flats over for George Honeyman Farmer, wine and spirit merchant. Original elevations revised in 1902. Tenements to the north in Duke Street (not listed) also built for Farmer in 1902. The Clydesdale Bank occupied the shop unit for many years before taking over the whole of the ground floor in 1923 and forming a new entrance on the corner angle.
