Dysfunction Room?

Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 27 Feb 2023

This building was built as a function room attached to the Royal Oak Hotel, which is no longer a hotel. The former Royal Oak itself is Category C listed http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB21904 but the description is quite clear that the function room is not part of the listing. This is just one of several modern buildings in Bridge Street that are completely out of keeping with the historic town, but at least this one is not derelict or ruinous.
