This building was erected in 1856, two years after the death of Archibald McLellan after whom it is named. The occupies of the frontage shops – two examples being Jessop's the photographical store and the British Heart Foundation charity shop – eschew their usual colourful signboards, maintaining a more traditional look to the long façade.
