Statement of Interest

B Group with adjoining No 1 and No 3 The Row (see separate list descriptions) as a traditional early burgh terrace. Notable for the remains of the inglenook fireplace, an uncommon survival at such a humble vernacular level. Prior to 1823 The Row formed part of a road which led to Thirlestane Castle and across to Norton.
