This is the gabled pediment with clock on the southeast elevation with the original mill lettering. This converted and restored 19th century 4-storey Ettrick and Yarrow Spinners Mill in Dunsdale Road is now owned by Scottish Enterprise Borders who offer a range of accommodation for all types of businesses. Scottish Enterprise is Scotland’s main economic, enterprise, innovation and investment agency. My grandfather worked in this mill as a foreman spinner in the 1950s.
