This house has riotously wild ashlar on the ground floor level, with diagonal chase-work, vertical tracery and gable-scrolls. It was the home of Dr George Johnston, (founder in 1831 of the Berwickshire Naturalist Club), from 1829 until his death in 1855. (So presumably he was the first occupant? Did he have any say in its building-work?)
