Virginia Buildings
The upper floor has seven bays, a central oriel window with Ionic pillars on either side, and a pyramidal roof with ornamental cast iron. 'The Buildings of Scotland' says that it was built in 1897, but the 'Banffshire Advertiser' reported on 28 May 1908 that the improvements to the Virginia Buildings, High Street, owned by John Green, Draper, were to cost £2,000. This was to involve alterations to both front and rear elevations. The whole front was to come down being replaced with a two storey building surmounted by an ornamental tower at one end. Two modernised window shops and one single window shop were to occupy the ground floor and the second floor would be supported on 4 handsome polished freestone pillars. The contractors for the work were John Dawson, mason; William Hendry, carpenter; John Barclay and Son, plumbers; John Barclay, slater; R Hume, plasterer; James Duncan, painter; but the architect's name was not reported.

Purple Nightclub
The sign above the door does say 'Purple' but in this light it might as well not be there. I wonder what exactly distinguishes a 'nightclub' from a dance hall or a discotheque or any other type of venue that offers high noise, low light, expensive alcohol and space for 'dancing'?
