Part of the Edinburgh 'New Town' developments of the late 18th century, and described as such in their 1996 Category C listing https://portal.historicenvironment.scot/apex/f?p=1505:300:::::VIEWTYPE,VIEWREF:designation,LB29637 & https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/200369771-79-81-rose-street-edinburgh-edinburgh. The shopfronts are early 19th century. The listing mentions much of this part of Rose Street, all the way from no 85 to 105 "as a significant surviving part of the original fabric of Edinburgh's New Town, one of the most important and best preserved examples of urban planning in Britain."
