12 Westgate was built around 1840 as one large, T-plan villa, known as Park House (see 1st Edition Ordnance Survey Map, published 1854). Mid-19th century sources show that it was the residence of Mr James Dall Junior, a merchant and banker. 10 Westgate dates to the later 19th century as it is first shown on the 2nd Edition Ordnance Survey Map (revised 1893).
In 1923 the property was purchased by the Commercial Bank of Scotland, who opened a branch in North Berwick as part of their expansion programme following the First World War. The large villa was divided into offices for the bank and a villa, as seen on the Ordnance Survey map (revised 1938).
In accordance with Section 1 (4A) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 the following are excluded from the listing: the 1980s single storey addition to west.
