James Street was largely built up in Ainslie's map of C. 1800. The area South of Broad Street was laid out but
unbuilt in 1771 except for a few modern sized detached houses and a row of artisan cottages on the east side
of Jamaica Street, replaced c. 1790. The rise in thread and textile manufacture and the popularity of Peterhead
as a spa resulted in the rapid development of this area in the 1790s when land here was worth £1150 an acre. In 1795 it was noted 'a great number of houses, where elegant lodgings may be found, have been erected by the inhabitants merely with a view to accomodate strangers'. By 1836 the thread and textile industry had collapsed; the Wine Well and Baths were demolished 1931. Except for no. 7 and nos. 18 & 20 St. Andrew Street was completely built up in Ainslie's maps of 1800/05.
