B-Group comprises Nos 77, 79, 81, 83 and 85 High Street and 3 and 4 Oliver Place - see separate list entries.
A well-proportioned, later-19th-century block which makes a good contribution to the run of buildings at the later, northern end of Hawick's High Street. It shares some features - including the corbelled cills and margins of the second-floor windows which lead into the eaves course - with the adjacent buildings at Nos 81, 83 and 85 High Street and 3 and 4 Oliver Place, although it does not have the richness of the latter buildings. It was presumably built at a similar time to these neighbouring buildings, which date from around 1878.
